- I'm not sure if this fits your bill (since texinfo is one step removed
- from plain info), but it won't hurt advertising this piece of code again:
-
- I have written a texinfo to html converter in Python. Python is an
- object-oriented interpreted language (also written by me). The html
- converter is part of the Python source distribution (in demo/www); you
- can ftp this distribution from ftp.cwi.nl, directory pub/python, file
- python0.9.8.tar.Z. It runs on most UNIX platforms.
-
- If you have a Sparc or SGI platform, I can make a binary of just the
- texinfo-to-html program available for you; this would save you the
- trouble of building Python just to run the script, but means you can't
- modify the program (the html it generates may need some
- customization). Let me know if you're interested in this.
