From reading the source, it turns out that the setkey() method can

b4d4e25a62
(Makefile): Updated comments about using LaTeX2HTML for the library
...
reference. Made the extension to the input files for makeindex
explicit; if not made explicit a directory of the given base
name can cause makeindex to blow up. Specifically, if there is
a directory ./lib/ created by LaTeX2HTML, "makeindex lib" will
fail, but "makeindex lib.idx" will not.
l2h{tut,ext,lib} are now dependent on myformat.perl.
l2h adds ls2lib and removes the non-existant l2href.

numbers right for latex2html for section titles which include

be, but sufficient.
1996-11-11 20:49:27 +00:00
Fred Drake
784c6d3684
(.latex2html-init): Perform some limited setup for the reference manuals;
...
some defaults are set here, but mostly this allows the "\," command
to be used the way it is in the Python documentation.
All future documentation should probably be written with only ","
in the argument lists and not "\,".

(myformat.sty, extref.tex): Moved definition of cfuncdesc environment to

myformat.sty; having it in extref.tex confuses LaTeX2HTML.
1996-10-29 15:55:08 +00:00
Fred Drake
fd255e433f
(tut.tex): Added matching \normalsize after \small font control command

(and the contents it was supposed to be affecting). The latest
LaTeX2HTML handles these, but didn't close it as expected. This
handles that problem and does not affect the PostScript output.
