gambit-convert reads a game on standard input in any supported format and converts it to another text representation. Currently, this tool supports outputting the strategic form of the game in one of these formats:
- A standard HTML table.
- A LaTeX fragment in the format of Martin Osborne's sgame macros (see http://www.economics.utoronto.ca/osborne/latex/index.html).
