bash command to convert html page to a text file

Question

I am a beginner to linux. Would you please help me how to convert an html page to a text file. the text file will remove any images and links from the webpage. I want to use only bash commands and not html to text converting tools. As an example, i want to convert the first page google search results for "computers".

Thank you

Easiest way is to use something like this which the dump (in short is the text version of viewable HTML).

Remote file:

lynx --dump www.google.com > file.txt
links -dump www.google.com

Local file:

lynx --dump ./1.html > file.txt
links -dump ./1.htm
