Description

 Post-processor for html2tex (also to be found in text/tex).

 Converts double apostrophes (") to `` and ''.

 Also converts *bold* pairs (marked by asterisks) into jmsempth{bold}.

Usage

 HTMLtoTeXAid infile outfile

 The program will ask for confirmation, you can either just tap
 return or enter y/yes/yo (or anything else starting with `y') to
 do the conversion, other response are considered to be `no'.

 The two replacement strings can overlap in their area of influence.

Programming notes

 Written in ARexx.

 Quite customizable.  For example, look at lines 20 to 22.
 find_string.1 contains the string to search for, which happens to
 be the asterisk.  repl_strng1.1 and repl_strng2.1 contain the strings
 which will alternately replace the asterisk.

 Similarly, lines 30 to 32.


v 1.0 30 December 1996.

 Multiple changes just prior to release!

 Will only print out text again if it has been changed.
 Will accept any word starting with `y' as a request to change text.
 Provided new example file (the one I actually used to develop the
 program is missing...)
