NAME
texi2html - a Texinfo to HTML converter
SYNOPSIS
texi2html [options] file
DESCRIPTION
Texi2html converts the given Texinfo file to a set of HTML files. It
tries to handle most of the 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 may furthermore use latex2html to generate HTML (code and/or
images) for @math and @iftex tags (see the -l2h 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.
OPTIONS
Options may be abbreviated to th shortests unique prefix. The following
is only an incomplete list of the available options:
-help [1|2] Print usage instructions and list the most important, all
relevant, or all recognised (including obsolete) command-
line options, and exit.
-expand info|tex|none
Expand @ifinfo, or @iftex, or sections (default: info)
-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.
-I dir Look also in dir to find included files.
-menu Show the Texinfo menus; by default they are ignored.
-number Number the sections.
-split chapter|section
Split the output into several HTML files (one per main
chapter/section).
-l2h Use latex2html for content of @math and @tex tags. Content
must be such that both, latex and tex, can translate it
correctly. I.e., no tex-only constructs must be used.
-l2h_l2h prog
Use prog as latex2html program (default latex2html). Pro‐
gram must be executable.
-l2h_init 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/.latex2html_init (3) ./.latex2html_init (4) init file
given on command line.
-l2h_tmp dir
Use dir as tmp dir for latex2html. This directory (resp.
its path) must not contain a dot (i.e., a ".").
-l2h_clean remove all intermediate files generated by latex2html (pre‐
vents caching!)
-l2h_skip Do not really run latex2html. Use (kept) files of previous
runs, instead.
-Verbose Give a verbose output.
-version Print version and exit.
FILES
Initialisation options are read first from /usr/local/etc/texi2htmlrc
(the exact location being changeable with the --sysconfdir=dir option
to the configure script), then from $HOME/.texi2htmlrc, then any com‐
mand-line options including -init_file options; with later settings
overriding earlier ones.
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).
foo_l2h_img* Images generated by latex2html (if any).
When used with the -split option, it creates several files (one per
chapter or node), named foo_n.html (n being the index of the chapter or
node), instead of the single foo.html file.
Otherwise it creates only one file: foo.html
VERSION
This is texi2html version 1.64, 2000-04-18.

BUGS
This man-page is not up-to-date and there exists no up-to-date documen‐
tation, yet. Until it exists, see the beginning of the texi2html.init
file for remarks about command-line options and configurations.
A row of a mutlicolumn table has to be in one line.
The generated HTML output is syntactically pretty bad.
TeX specific commands (normally enclosed in @iftex) will be passed over
unmodified, unless latex2html is enabled.
