title: is there a way to convert .html file (tab delimited text file) to csv without using pandas
body: <p>I have a .html file but the file does not contain any tags. I want to convert this .html file to either excel or CSV. So that I can use pandas for carrying some operations.</p>
  
  <p>Currently, I am unable to use pandas as it searches for a table, tr tag for converting HTML file to CSV or excel.</p>
  
  <p>An example HTML file (full page available <a href="http://vint.0x01.ru/~vint/raid_test/5/localhost-0.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here</a>):</p>
