WWW home page: http://www.mathematik.uni-kl.de/~obachman/Texi2html/ Mailing lists: - texi2html@mathematik.uni-kl.de for bug reports, enhancement suggestions, authoring questions and general discussion. - to subscribe to this mailinglist, send an email to majordomo@mathematik.uni-kl.de with the mail body 'subscribe texi2html' (without the quotes). There is as yet no corresponding newsgroup. For bug reports, please include enough information for the maintainers to reproduce the problem. Generally speaking, that means: - the version number of Texi2html and the program(s) involved (use --version). - the contents of any input files necessary to reproduce the bug (crucial!). - a description of the problem and any samples of the erroneous output. - anything else that you think would be helpful. Patches are most welcome; if possible, please make them against the source files (e.g., against texi2html.pl, or texi2html.init) with 'diff -c' and include ChangeLog entries. When sending email, please do not encode or split the messages in any way if at all possible; it's much easier to deal with one large message than many small ones. GNU shar is a convenient way of packaging multiple and/or binary files for email.
