Yes, \page is the answer to this.
And there is an index.html created as well as the file that I want.

[RK>] Ok, this is now fine.
[RK>] The \page directive is the key to getting arbitrary text in.
[RK>] And as you say, index.html is being created with some basic navigation 
stuff.

[RK>] And there is, as suggested, an index.html, which just links to all the 
other content.  So on using \page I get a specific html file generated, which I 
can easily extract, or link to.

[RK>] Yes, \page was the key to getting this sorted.
[RK>] Although I think I have seen in the documentation a list that includes 
\class, \page, \file and others, I can't now find it.  Although I did find 
\page late yesterday afternoon it wasn't easy to find.
