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/share/texi2html/texi2html/Config  (the  exact  location
       being  changeable with the --datadir=dir option to the configure script), then from /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

       This is texi2html version 1.82, December 23. 2015.
