Fig 1. CodeWebifier Output

1.0 Concept:

CodeWebifier converts source code text into an HTML fragment. That entails:

Converting markup characters to their escape sequence equivalents
Prepending <pre> and postpending </pre> tags
Writing to console for subsequent copying
That copy is then pasted into an HTML document

2.0 Design:

This is a very simple application with only a single project with App and Window packages. It is implemented as a console application that creates a WPF GUI window used to select files for webifying. That GUI uses a file dialog to find files for processing.

Note that is easy to do: just create a WPF C# application in Visual Studio, and in the project properties page change the application from Windows Application to Console Application.

3.0 Build:

CodeWebifier was built with Visual Studio Community Edition - 2019 and tested on Windows 10.

4.0 Status:

Installed and stable.
