Subject: Hevea new release
Date: Tue, 6 Jul 1999 18:26:59 +0200 (MET DST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <199907061626.SAA09141@margaux.inria.fr> (raw)
It is my pleasure to anounce the new release of HEVEA.
This is HEVEA, version 1.04, a fast LaTeX to HTML translator.
HEVEA is a LaTeX to HTML translator. The input language is a fairly
complete subset of LaTeX2e (old LaTeX style is also accepted) and the
output language is HTML that is (hopefully) correct with respect to
version 4.0 (transitional)
With respect to previous version 1.03, the most salient changes
comcern the nature of output:
- Hevea now generates HTML 4.0- transitional. This does not
change much, essentially FACE=symbol is now standard...
- There are two new output formats : plain text and info files.
Thus, one can generate plain text versions of software manuals
from LaTeX source code.
- An experimental (very experimental) MathML mode is included
in the released version.
A few bugs are corrected, the most important ones are:
- The alltt environment should now work properly
- Environment names now can includes figures (\begin{list1}
... \end{list1} is now valid).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Exotic symbols are translated into symbols
pertaining to the symbol font of the HTML browser, using the
now standard FACE attribute of the FONT tag.
This allows the translation to HTML of quite a lot of the symbols
used in LaTeX.
HEVEA understands LaTeX macro definitions. Simple user style
files are understood with little or no modifications.
Furthermore, HEVEA customization is done by writing LaTeX code.
HEVEA is written in Objective Caml, as many lexers. It is quite fast
and flexible. Using HEVEA it is possible to translate large documents
such as manuals, books, etc. very quickly. All documents are
translated as one single HTML file. Then, the output file can be cut
into smaller files, using the companion program HACHA.
