Subject: decoding html char codes
Date: Mon, 30 Dec 2013 23:47:05 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAEp6DyZuXO7Lzhm++OBr-gAVdHwMy6MRsvYiUaJsqjQd2-mT7A@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

On a farily regular basis, I need to convert strings like this:

&lt;b&gt;foo &amp; bar&lt;/b&gt;

to this:

<b>foo & bar</b>

I have an ad-hoc dictionary for doing such translations. However emacs
seems to be shipped with at least 2. One located in etc/nxml/ and another
in lisp/leim/quail/sgml-input.el. Does anyone know through which APIs can
these dictionaries be accessed?
