RPoL Thread Reformatter

This script takes a down­loaded thread from RPoL, and refor­mats it into some­thing rea­son­ably tidy for import­ing else­where, e.g. a Dru­pal site.

Writ­ten in Python 2.5, doesn’t require any exter­nal libraries. To use it, find an RPoL thread, click “D/L” at the top right. Keep the default options, and request the down­load. Take the page it pro­duces and save it (File > Save As… or what­ever) in the same direc­tory as the script as input.html. The script will pro­duce an output.txt (it’s not a full HTML page, hence TXT not HTML).

Use at your own risk, may destroy the uni­verse amongst other symptoms.

Issues with this appli­ca­tion are tracked on my Man­tis server, which is open to any­one to sign up, report bugs and request fea­tures. Please report any issues you find!
