""" Utility for parsing HTML entity definitions available from:

http://www.w3.org/ as e.g.

http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/HTMLlat1.ent

Input is read from stdin, output is written to stdout in form of a

Python snippet defining a dictionary "entitydefs" mapping literal

entity name to character or numeric entity.

Marc-Andre Lemburg, mal@lemburg.com, 1999.

Use as you like. NO WARRANTIES.
