preformat3

These preformat scripts write to standard output so redirect it to a file. For example.
preformat3 >blah.html
Please remember to run wwwis on the html file to include width and height tags so the page formats faster.
#!/usr/bin/perl -w

# This script, like all the other poorly named
# preformat script will write a web page to
# standard output which includes all of the
# _small.jpg images in the current directory
# the _small.jpg will have links to their
# full sized friends.
