1. BUGFIX: In function makefile(), strip blanks from the nodename.
This is necesary to match the behavior of parser.makeref() and
parser.do_node().
2. BUGFIX fixed KeyError in end_ifset (well, I may have just made
it go away, rather than fix it)
3. BUGFIX allow @menu and menu items inside @ifset or @ifclear
4. Support added for:
@uref URL reference
@image image file reference (see note below)
@multitable output an HTML table
@vtable
5. Partial support for accents, to match MAKEINFO output
6. I added a new command-line option, '-H basename', to specify
HTML Help output. This will cause three files to be created
in the current directory:
`basename`.hhp HTML Help Workshop project file
`basename`.hhc Contents file for the project
`basename`.hhk Index file for the project
When fed into HTML Help Workshop, the resulting file will be
named `basename`.chm.
7. A new class, HTMLHelp, to accomplish item 6.
8. Various calls to HTMLHelp functions.
A NOTE ON IMAGES: Just as 'outputdirectory' must exist before
running this program, all referenced images must already exist
in outputdirectory.
FLD: wrapped some long lines.
navigation links for HTML 3 version.
Forced a blank line above the footnotes separator for HTML 2; at
least one page did not get this spaced correctly.
print section titles even when the debugging output is not enabled.
Added -3 option to generate HTML 3.0 constructs where meaningful.
Removed repititive garbage generation: the old version added simple
descriptive comments after every datadesc/funcdesc/*desc entry:
function(args) -- function of module xxxx
Description....
These comments are no longer generated:
function(args)
Description....
to 4 spaces per level (no longer 8).
(Makefile): Use .pyc versions of partparse.py and texi2html.py to generate
converted documentation formats. This reduces the startup costs;
probably doesn't affect anyone but me in reality, but helps when
working on the docs.
