NAME
     HTML::FromText - mark up text as HTML

SYNOPSIS
         use HTML::FromText;
         print text2html($text, urls => 1, paras => 1, headings => 1);

DESCRIPTION
     The text2html function marks up plain text as HTML.  By
     default it converts HTML metacharacters into the
     corresponding entities.  More sophisticated transformations,
     such as splitting the text into paragraphs or marking up
     bulleted lists, can be carried out by setting the
     appropriate options.

NEW FEATURES
     1.004  New options 'blockparas' (mark up block quotes as ordinary
            paragraphs) and 'blockcode' (mark up block quotes in
            fixed-width font while preserving line breaks and spaces).

	    Tabs are expanded throughout the text (it was a bug not to
	    do so in earlier versions because alignment could be lost,
	    block quotes not recognised, etc).

            New option 'tables'.
