 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...

      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
      Texinfo file and on the chosen options (see FILES).

      The HTML files created by texi2html are in general closer to TeX than
      to Info. Using init files (see the --init-file option), other styles
      or output formats may be selected.

 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.

      --split chapter|section|node
                  Split the output into several HTML files (one per main
                  chapter/section or node).

      --ifinfo --iftex --ifxml --ifplaintext --ifhtml
                  Expand @ifinfo, @iftex and @tex, @ifxml and @xml,
                  @ifplaintext, @ifhtml and @html regions, and don't expand
                  @ifnot corresponding regions (default: ifhtml).

      --no-ifinfo --no-iftex --no-ifxml --no-ifplaintext --no-html
                  Don't expand @ifinfo, @iftex, @ifxml, @ifplaintext regions
                  and expand @ifnot corresponding regions.

      -I dir      Append dir to the directory list searched for included
                  files.

      -P dir      Prepend dir to the directory list searched for included
                  files.

      --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.

      --css-include file
                  Use css file file.

      --init-file file
                  Load init file file (see also FILES).

      --document-language lang
                  Use lang as document language.

      --macro-expand file
                  output macro expanded source in file.

      --no-menu   Don't show the Texinfo menus; by default they are shown.

      --no-number Don't number the sections.

      --use-nodes Use nodes for sectionning.

      --prefix    Use as prefix for output files, instead of basename.

      --node-files
                  Produce one file per node for cross references.

      --l2h-l2h prog
                  Use prog as latex2html program (default latex2html).
                  Program 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.


      --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
                  (prevents 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/share/texi2html/texi2html/Config (the exact location being
      changeable with the --datadir=dir option to the configure script),
      then from /usr/local/etc/texi2html/Config (the exact location being
      changeable with the --sysconfdir=dir option to the configure script),
      then from ./Config, from $HOME/.texi2html/Config, and from 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):

      foo_toc.html    The table of contents (if @contents is present).

      foo.html        The document's contents or the Top element.

      foo_fot.html    The footnotes (if any).

      foo_abt.html    An help section.

      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), and the foo.html file contains the Top element.

      Otherwise it creates only one file: foo.html
