Looks good, but rough. =) (htmldoc is GPLed, so we can fix bugs in the tool if need be.) Sporadic notes: - Bookmarks aren't done right. It stops too soon. Ideally, it should only be an HTML page per bookmark. (Maybe a level deeper, but I doubt we want that?) - Whatever is happening around page 101 isn't nice. - Is this Apache 2.0 or 1.3? I saw a note in there about Apache 2.0? But, it looks like it is a definite starting point. -- justin --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
