Is it there a backend that outputs to pure text? about asciidoctor-backends

The closest thing currently is the now deprecated manpage templates (it's deprecated because it's now part of core). They use ERB to output something close to plain text, but it should give you an idea of how it is done.

Another way to get plain text (which is what AsciiDoc Python did) was convert the HTML output to plain text using links.

$ links -dump output.html

Where can I find more info on links?

Thanks! My course is over, but I'll give it a try the next time I have the
opportunity.
