html2md turns html into markdown
- if no input file is given it ueses the clipboard content
- if no output file is given it logs the result to stdout
- if there is input from stdin clipboard will be ignored for inputs
Examples:
$ html2md -i ./foo.html # output to stdout
$ html2md -i ./foo.html -o out.md # output to out.md
$ html2md -o out.md # clipboard to out.md
$ html2md -c # clipboard to clipboard
$ html2md # clipboard to stdout
$ html2md -g # clipboard to stdout using GitHub flavored markdown
$ echo "<h1>foo</h1>" | html2md # will output to stdout

The following error indicates that $DISPLAY is not set to a valid display: Error: Both xsel and fallback failed
html2md relies on a valid $DISPLAY because it uses clipboard via xsel.
In some environments (for example, tmux) you may need to run the command as follows:
DISPLAY=:0 html2md ... # or whatever your display id is.
Fully headless systems may not be able to use html2md.
