htmlDecode (String str) yoix.string
 
Scans str for character sequences of the form: &#N;, where N is treated as the decimal value of the resulting decoded character, or also for sequences of the form: &#KEYWORD;, where KEYWORD is any of the character encodings defined in the HTML4.1 specification posted on the w3c.org website. In either case, the replacement in the returned output string is a single character.
 
 Example:   The program,
import yoix.string.*;

String enc = htmlEncode("<B>Hello, World.</B>");

stdout.nextline = enc;
stdout.nextline = htmlDecode(enc);
prints
<B>Hello, World.</B>
<B>Hello, World.</B>
on standard output.
 
 Return:   String
