Parsing limitations with Python 3.0

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

Crunchy now works partly with Python 3.0.  However, it is extremely fussy
as to how html files are written; all tags have to be properly closed, and
no special character is handled properly unless they are escaped using, eg.
&eacute; instead of é.

As a long term goal, running Crunchy under Python 3.0 should be as easy as
running it with Python 2.x - but we may have to wait for a 3.0 version of
BeautifulSoup.

Fixed via a hack: a subprocess is launched (assuming that "python" launches a 
2.x
version) which cleans up the file using ElementSoup/BeautifulSoup.  It is not 
ideal,
but will have to do for now.
