I use Microsoft FrontPage for some stuff
(
http://www.vancouverroboticsclub.org/)For my personal web site: Http://www.DaveHylands.com/ I wrote a perl
script which parses a text file containing stuff like this:
---- Start of snippet ----
Title: Stinger
Stinger is my first attempt at building a low profile mini-sumo. I
would say that
it was successful, as Stinger came in 2nd place at the
<a href="
http://www.robotgames.com/">Western Canadian Robot Games</a>
in Calgary.

The Base is machined out of PVC. I happened to have some on hand
and decided
to try it out. The notch in the front was a goof where I didn't have
the material
clamped tightly enough during machining. The big holes in the middle
are to allow
air cooling of the motor drivers and CPU board.
---- End of snippet ----
You can see the result of the above by looking here:

http://www.DaveHylands.com/Robotics/Stinger/Pages.txtYou'll probably need to use wget or something similar to download it and
preserve the line endings.
It uses a package called ImageMagick
http://www.imagemagick.org/ to
downsample my full sized photos and create 50% versions and thumbnails.
I use cygwin under Windows and there are references to a couple of
cygwin apps in the script as well (cp, cmp, cygpath, mkdir)
I've always meant to write up something that describes how it works and
make the script available on my web site, but I haven't done so yet. In
the meantime, I'd be happy to send you the script along with some
samples and stuff.
