Thanks. LaTeX work, mostly. At one time, I asked Andrei for the latex formatting functions used in TDPL, but he was authorized to distribute it. That would permit D docs to get TDPL look & feel. > I strongly encourage you to continue with it, and release it as a book. We > could sure use another book on D!

What I want (maybe in 1-2 months) is to write a simple D script that takes the .tex files and transform them into simple marked-up text, to produce a DDoc file or an HTML one. Is there any tex -> <whatever format ebooks use> or pdf -> ebook converters? > Minor stylistic nit pet peeve of mine: please remove the word "you" and > "your" from the prose.
