# html2texi.pl -- Convert HTML documentation to Texinfo format

# This program converts HTML documentation trees into Texinfo format.
# Given the name of a main (or contents) HTML file, it processes that file,
# and other files (transitively) referenced by it, into a Texinfo file
# (whose name is chosen from the file or directory name of the argument).
# For instance:
-# html2texi.pl api/index.pl

+# html2texi.pl is currently tuned to latex2html output (and it corrects
+# several latex2html bugs), but should be extensible to arbitrary HTML
+# documents. It will be most useful for HTML with a hierarchical structure
+# and an index, and it recognizes those features as created by latex2html
+# (and possibly by some other tools). The HTML tree to be traversed must
+# be on local disk, rather than being accessed via HTTP.
# This script requires the use of "checkargs.pm". To eliminate that
# dependence, replace calls to check_args* by @_ (which is always the last
# argument to those functions).
# Also see the "to do" section, below.
# Comments, suggestions, bug fixes, and enhancements are welcome.
+# Troubleshooting:
+# Malformed HTML can cause this program to abort, so
+# you should check your HTML files to make sure they are legal.
