Excellent --- 10 out of 10 for ingenuity.
A lot of changes to LaTeX2HTML can be implemented this way,
without requiring edits in existing scripts or packages.
However you do have to ignore messages from LaTeX about
unknown class-options --- just harmless irritations.
># ... Maybe this should be done in html.sty.
Again correct; but we need indications as to what is the best syntax.
1. the command name probably should be \htmlkeywords
to avoid clashing with other uses of \keyword
(e.g. AMS document-classes already use \keywords
which is dangerously close but perhaps should be commandeered anyway;
viz.
sub do_cmd_keywords{&do_cmd_htmlkeywords(@_)}
2. What should be the scope of $KEYWORDS ?
Every page in an HTML document ?
Just the 1st page ?
Just the page on which the command happens to fall ?
3. What about other <META .... > tags ?
There can be a general command:
\newcommand{\htmlmeta}[2]{} (in html.sty)
But how should it be implemented in Perl?
Only certain key-words are valid, but values are rather arbitrary.
Again there are questions of scope.
I don't want to impose anything; but wish to hear views from those
who make frequent use of extra <META .... > tags.
Cheers,
