Here's a lisp program I cooked up to convert HTML files
to Frame's Maker Markup Language. It uses a real SGML
parser and a lisp interpreter, so you'll have to build
those if you don't have them handy.

I haven't tested it extensively, and I don't have a
down translator (MIF to HTML) yet... but I thought
I'd pass it along.

Oh... it assumes the HTML file conforms to the DTD
I sent out a while ago (I'd give you a WWW HREF/URL,
but the server's down right now and I can't find
it.)

;;; html2mml.l -- translate HyperText Markup Language to Maker Markup Language.
;;;
;;; USE
;;;  sgmls file.html | xlisp html2mml.l >file.mml
;;;
;;; Where xlisp is Tom Almy's improved release of David Betz's XLISP 2.1,
;;; available in export.lcs.mit.edu:/contrib/winterp/xlisp/xlisp-2.1.almy.tar.Z
;;; and sgmls is built from
;;; ifi.uio.no:/pub/SGML/SGMLS/sgmls-0.8.tar
;;; aka
;;; ftp.uu.net:/pub/text-processing/sgml/sgmls-0.8.tar.Z
;;;
;;; The resulting file will have the OS Banner from XLisp at the
;;; top. For some reason, XLisp writes everything to stdout.
;;; I patched it to write diagnostic output to stderr. I'll have
;;; to get the patches incorporated soon.
;;;
;;; Anyway, just edit the banner out so the first line of the file is
;;; <MML ...>
;;;
;;; Then import the mml file to FrameMaker.
