NAME
texi2html - a Texinfo to HTML converter
SYNOPSIS
tteexxii22hhttmmll [[ooppttiioonnss]] ffiilleeDESCRIPTION
Texi2html converts the given Texinfo file to a set of HTML files. It tries to handle most of the Texinfo commands. It creates hypertextlinks for cross-references, footnotes...
Texi2html may furthermore use latex2html to generate HTML (code and/orimages) for @math and @iftex tags (see the --ll22hh option).
Texi2html creates several files depending on the contents of the Tex-
info file and on the chosen options (see FILES).The HTML files created by texi2html are closer to TeX than to Info.
OOPPTTIIOONNSS Options may be abbreviated to th shortests unique prefix. The following is only an incomplete list of the available options:--hheellpp [[11||22]]
Print usage instructions and list the most important, allrelevant, or all recognised (including obsolete) command-
line options, and exit.--iiffiinnffoo --iifftteexx --iiffxxmmll --iiffppllaaiinntteexxtt --iiffhhttmmll
Expand @ifinfo, @iftex and @tex, @ifxml and @xml, @ifplain-
text, @ifhtml and @html regions, and don't expand @ifnot corresponding regions (default: ifhtml).--nnoo-iiffiinnffoo --nnoo-iifftteexx --nnoo-iiffxxmmll --nnoo-iiffppllaaiinntteexxtt --nnoo-hhttmmll
Don't expand @ifinfo, @iftex, @ifxml, @ifplaintext regions and expand @ifnot corresponding regions.-II dir Append dir to the directory list searched for included
files.-PP dir Prepend dir to the directory list searched for included
files.--nnoo-mmeennuu Don't show the Texinfo menus; by default they are shown.
--nnoo-nnuummbbeerr Don't number the sections.
--sspplliitt cchhaapptteerr||sseeccttiioonn||nnooddee
Split the output into several HTML files (one per main chapter/section or node).--ll22hh Use latex2html for content of @math and @tex tags. Content
must be such that both, latex and tex, can translate itcorrectly. I.e., no tex-only constructs must be used.
--ll22hh-ll22hh prog
Use prog as latex2html program (default latex2html). Pro-
gram must be executable.--ll22hh-iinniitt file
Use file as latex2html init file. file should be used to specify in which way latex2html handles mathematical expressions and formulas.Note that latex2html locates (and uses) init-files in the
following order (provided they exist): (1) global init file (usually in latex2html source dir) (2)$HOME/.latex2htmlinit (3) ./.latex2htmlinit (4) init file
given on command line.--ll22hh-ttmmpp dir
Use dir as tmp dir for latex2html. This directory (resp. its path) must not contain a dot (i.e., a ".").--ll22hh-cclleeaann remove all intermediate files generated by latex2html (pre-
vents caching!)--ll22hh-sskkiipp Do not really run latex2html. Use (kept) files of previous
runs, instead.--VVeerrbboossee Give a verbose output.
--vveerrssiioonn Print version and exit.
FILESInitialisation options are read first from ${prefix}/etc/texi2html/Con-
fig (the exact location being changeable with the -sysconfdir=dir
option to the configure script), then from $HOME/.texi2html/Config,
then any command-line options including -init-file options; with later
settings overriding earlier ones.By default texi2html my creates the following files (foo being the name
of the Texinfo file): ffoooottoocc..hhttmmll The table of contents (if @contents is present). ffoooo..hhttmmll The document's contents or the Top element. ffooooffoott..hhttmmll The footnotes (if any). ffooooaabbtt..hhttmmll An help section. ffooooll22hhiimmgg** Images generated by latex2html (if any).When used with the --sspplliitt option, it creates several files (one per
chapter or node), named ffoooonn..hhttmmll (n being the index of the chapter or node), and the ffoooo..hhttmmll file contains the Top element. Otherwise it creates only one file: ffoooo..hhttmmll VVEERRSSIIOONNThis is texi2html version 1.70, 24 March 2004.
