The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:

  modid:       HTML::AsText::Fix
  DSLIP:       bdphp
  description: extends as_text() to render text properly
  userid:      SYP (Станислав Пусеп)
  chapterid:   15 (World_Wide_Web_HTML_HTTP_CGI)
  communities:
    https://github.com/creaktive/HTML-AsText-Fix

  similar:
    HTML::FormatText

  rationale:

    Consider the following HTML sample:

    <p> <span>AA/span BBB </p> <h2>CC<code>/h2</code> DDD <br> EEE

    HTML::Element::as_text() method stringifies it as
    "AAABBBCCCDDDEEE". Despite being correct, this is far from the
    actual renderization within a "real" browser. links(1), lynx(1) &
    w3m(1) break lines this way:

    AAABBB CCC DDD EEE

    This module tries to inject (via monkeypatching) the same behavior
    into the method "as_text" in HTML::Element. This way, one can get
    the expected behavior in modules that depend from HTML::Element (for
    instance, Web::Scraper).
