rdr is a command-line tool that converts web pages to Markdown format and displays the content in a pager or terminal. It uses the go-readability library to extract the main content from a web page and the html-to-markdown library to convert the HTML to Markdown.

rdr [url]

If a URL is provided as an argument, rdr will fetch the content from that URL. If no URL is provided, rdr will read the input from stdin.

• --no-pager: Don't pipe the output to a pager (e.g., less). Instead, print the output directly to the terminal.
• --no-links: Don't display any links in the output. Links will be replaced with their text content.
• --raw: Print the raw Markdown output without any formatting or rendering.

1. Convert a web page to Markdown and display it in a pager:

rdr https://example.com

2. Convert a local HTML file to Markdown and display it in the terminal:

cat index.html | rdr -

3. Convert a web page to Markdown, remove all links, and display it in the terminal:

rdr --no-links --no-pager https://example.com

4. Convert a web page to raw Markdown and print it to stdout:

rdr --raw https://example.com
