The ASCII WWW client lynx has this capability; just run it with "lynx -dump".
I use this in a gmake rule, as in:
%.txt: %.html
lynx -dump *.html > $*.txt
After that, I cat the textfiles together.
However, quite recently, Matt Welsh has released Linuxdoc-SGML v1.1.
I quote from the announcement (to comp.os.linux.announce):
>I have uploaded Linuxdoc-SGML v1.1 to sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/Incoming.
>It is also available on ftp.cs.cornell.edu:/pub/mdw.
>
>Linuxdoc-SGML is a text-formatting package based on SGML (Standard
>Generalized Markup Language), which allows you to produce LaTeX, groff,
>HTML, and plain ASCII (via groff) documents from a single source.
At first glance, this looks to be very good; I'm considering switching
the Gnuplot FAQ over to this format.
