I have a stardict dictionary which unfortunately uses some html tags. I like to be able to pipe its output to a utility to make it viewable. I don't even necessarily want to have visual effects dictated by the tags, just simply displaying them in a readable form is great. Here is an example output:



$ sdcv سلام
Found 1 items, similar to سلام.
-->Moin
-->سلام

<p align=right dir=rtl>(سَ) [<font color="green"> ع.</font> ] (<font color="green">مص ل.</font>)<br><font color="#7030a0">۱-</font> درود گفتن.<br><font color="#7030a0">۲-</font> بی گزند شدن.<br><font color="#7030a0">۳-</font> گردن نهادن.<br>~ علیک درود بر تو باد.<br>~ علیکم درود بر شما.</p>


I tried piping it to w3m, but it just displayed the html as it was.



PS: I use the terminal emulator kitty.

  • You have tons of options as even a cursory Google search will show. A modern option is brow.sh

    Please mention in the question that you need to display bi-directional text correctly; that may reduce the tons of options to a couple. Or even none, if you need something both lightweight and general.
