- I have written a crude but effective script which takes SGML output
- from DECwrite and groks it into HTML. It's a first pass, and not
- comprehensive, but it has got a few existing DECwrite docs into WWW OK.
-
- The easy stuff is just direct translation, but because DECwrite handles
- nested lists different to HTML, there's a lot of code devoted to them.
- I've also got it to put footnotes at the bottom of the page, and
- rebuild a table of contents. DECwrite SGML, would you believe, outputs
- the page refs in a TOC as the actual page numbers as per A4 paper. :-(
-
- The script is at http://www.cranfield.ac.uk/test/decw2html
-
- If any DECwriters out there try it, do let me know. Ta.
