The Internet Security Glossary (RFC 2828), by Robert Shirey is a useful resource for understanding terms used in the network security field. All RFCs are distributed in a common text format that makes for easier distribution and greater consistency, but makes term lookup in the glossary more difficult than necessary.
The given text format of the Internet Security Glossary (RFC 2828) makes lookup of terms difficult and slow. Greater ease of searching, browsing, and lookup of terms could be achieved if the glossary were in html format with proper linking to terms.
Write a script that extracts the terms, definitions, and references from the glossary and writes them to html files for easier use. I plan on using the scripting language Ruby for this as it has powerful regular expression matching, datatypes, and methods useful for this task.
