This directory contains SGML and HTML support tools. Some of these are also available elsewhere in this anonymous FTP tree.

Normally, the SP (SGML Parser) distributions listed below would be provided from ftp://ftp.jclark.com/pub/sp/ in Great Britain, but that circuit is getting rather overloaded, and transfer of large files has become problematic. This site at the University of Utah has therefore stepped in to provide a North American repository. Other sites are welcome to mirror this collection for greater reliability and improved access.

The sp-x.y.z-*.tar.gz binary distributions of SP contain the html-check and html-ncheck scripts that make validation of HTML files easy. Those scripts are also available separately, in the table below.

These packages are available in several functionally-equivalent distribution formats with identical contents: .jar (Java archive), .tar.bz2 (bzip2'ed UNIX tar archive), .tar.gz (gzipped UNIX tar archive), .zip (InfoZip), and .zoo (zoo), together with companion contents listings ending in -lst. Each unpacks into a subdirectory named by the basename of the distribution file, e.g., 00dir.cmd-1.00.
