As part of my efforts to develop a consistent markup schema for HTML files, and to create a method for automatic conversion to practical formats such as ePub and Kindle, I have reviewed many of the automatic conversions now available at Project Gutenberg, as well as several of the "snowflake" versions produced by the Widger/Haines consortium. My conclusion is that for almost all purposes the automatic conversion is superior to any one of the multiple Widger versions. This conclusion leads to two questions: 1. How can I get an automated HTML conversion of a text which has a hand-crafted HTML version? 2. Does the automated HTML conversion tool set exist on readingroo.ms, so I can execute it locally in that environment?
