HXCOUNT(1)                      HTML-XML-utils                      HXCOUNT(1)

NAME
       hxcount - count elements and attributes in HTML or XML files

SYNOPSIS
       hxcount [ file-or-URL ]

DESCRIPTION
       The hxcount command counts the number of elements and attributes of
       each type that appears in the input and prints a report on stdout.

OPERANDS
       The following operand is supported:

       file-or-URL
                 The name or URL of an HTML or XML file. If absent, standard
                 input is read instead.

EXIT STATUS
       The following exit values are returned:

       0         Successful completion.

       > 0       An error occurred in the parsing of the HTML or XML file.
                 hxcount will try to recover from the error and produce output
                 anyway.

ENVIRONMENT
       To use a proxy to retrieve remote files, set the environment variables
       http_proxy and ftp_proxy.  E.g., http_proxy="http://localhost:8080/"

BUGS
       Don't trust the output if there were errors in the input.

       Remote files (specified with a URL) are currently only supported for
       HTTP. Password-protected files or files that depend on HTTP "cookies"
       are not handled. (You can use tools such as curl(1) or wget(1) to
       retrieve such files.)
