NAME
texi2html - a Texinfo to HTML converter
SYNOPSIS
texi2html [options] file
texi2html -check [-verbose] files
DESCRIPTION
Texi2html converts the given Texinfo file to a set of HTML
files. It tries to handle most of Texinfo commands. It
creates hypertext links for cross-references, footnotes...
It also tries to add links from a reference to its
corresponding entry in the bibliography (if any). It may
also handle a glossary (see the -glossary option).
Texi2html creates several files depending on the contents of
the Texinfo file and on the chosen options (see FILES).
The HTML files created by texi2html are closer to TeX than
to Info, what's why texi2html convert @iftex sections and
not @ifinfo ones.
OPTIONS
-check Check the given file and give the list of all
things that may be Texinfo commands. This may
be used to check the output of texi2html to find
the Texinfo commands that have been left in the
HTML file.
-glossary Use the section named 'Glossary' to build a list
of terms and put links in the HTML document from
each term toward its definition.
-invisible name
Use name to create invisible destination anchors
for index links. This is a workaround for a
known bug of many WWW browsers, including
xmosaic.
-menu Show the Texinfo menus; by default they are
ignored.
-split_chapter
Split the output into several HTML files (one
per main section: chapter, appendix...).
-split_node Split the output into several HTML files (one
per node).
-usage Print usage instructions, listing the current
available command-line options.
-verbose Give a verbose output. Can be used with the
-check option.
FILES
By default texi2html creates the following files (foo being
the name of the Texinfo file):
foo_toc.html The table of contents.
foo.html The document's contents.
foo_foot.html The footnotes (if any).
When used with the -split option, it creates several files
(one per chapter or node), named foo_n.html (n being the
indice of the chapter or node), instead of the single
foo.html file.
VARIABLES
texi2html predefines the following variables: html,
texi2html.
ADDITIONAL COMMANDS

@ifhtml This indicates the start of an HTML section,
this section will passed through without any
modofication.
@end ifhtml This indcates the end of an HTML section.
VERSION
This is texi2html version 1.28, 03/02/94.
