I am very depressed now with the following problem. I have a set of html files, must be human readable that I want to convert to human readable latex. The program by http://in.geocities.com/ad_rab/ produces human unreadable tex. and i could not see the compiled resulting dvi. The gnu program produces human readable latex, but does not handle all the tags. the C program by Faase ??? produces human readable latex but misses a few tags. The C program is unreadable by me so I cant modify it. On sourceforge there are two programs one in Perl and the other in Java. The perl one does not run due to path problems. The java one produces complicated latex, possibly human readable, but that does not compile so I could not see its quality. Does someone have a program? I prefer a well documented and fully commented program that one can modify or one that can do the job without the need for understanding its operation. Please help. The situation is very desperate.

Sending a message to more or less randomly chosen newgroups does not help
much with that.

Latex is a typesetting language and not meant to be human-readable.
> Does someone have a program?
Yes, but I wrote it for myself only and haven't used it for years.

How desperate, really? Try offering 20,000 dollars, for example. You are
asking for a program that is straightforward but very tedious to write, with
limited market, and you're setting high standards for it.

If it's only for the sake of typesetting, you can typeset them directly with the htmltex package. Oliver. -- Dr. Oliver Corff e-mail: corff@zedat.fu-berlin.de
