synonyms for macros. This supports:
\let\newname = \oldname
\let\newname\oldname

left to the buildindex.py script.
Change the field separator used in the index.dat file so utilities like grep
are useful on these files; they can't typically handle NUL bytes.
Protect index entries for environment variables from being handled as
case-insensitive by buildindex.py.
special markup for the first column of a table using {tableii} or {tableiii}.
In LaTeX, this requires using "textrm" as the formatting function, and this
is needed to remove the bogus "<textrm>" that gets generated otherwise.
There should probably be a more general mapping of specified markup to useful
markup, but that doesn't appear needed at the moment.
do_env_tableii(), do_env_tableiii(): If the markup for the first column is
\textrm, make it empty.
do_cmd_lineii(), do_cmd_lineiii(): If the markup for the first column is
empty, don't add markup around the text.
Implemented some new features of python.sty for methods & members.
Fixed some bugs.
Cleaned up some perl code and made some basic regular expressions more robust.

wasn't the fix.
Simplify the generated HTML for \file{}.
For \samp{}, use "..." instead of `...'; many fonts make that look pretty
bad. ;-(
now requires LaTeX2HTML 98.1p1 or newer (& and is still in progress).
This means that doing things to change the formatting of the manuals (at the
"normal user" level, like A4 paper), can happen in just one place, rather
than in each document file.
