Here's a small instruction list for how to run LaTeX2HTML on Windows.
I updated the hints of Jens Berger ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
who did the installation and successful test on his Windows system.
Please send a note whether you feel comfortable with it.
If you need more help, let me know.
Kind regards,
Jens Lippmann.
LaTeX2HTML on Windows/DOS
-------------------------
Requirements:
WINZIP
to unpack .gz files
http://www.winzip.com/getsite.cgi?winzip70.exe
TeX/LaTeX + DVIPS
e.g. MiKTeX 1.11(d), DVIPS 5.83
http://tug.ctan.org/cgi-bin/ctan-web-ftp?systems/win32/miktex/1.11/complete.exe&17508660
GhostScript
e.g. Aladdin GhostScript 5.50
http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/aladdin/get550.html
NetPBM
http://tug.ctan.org/cgi-bin/ctan-web-ftp?systems/win32/miktex/util/netpbm.zip&1026008
PERL
e.g. ActivePerl 509 for Win32
ftp://ftp.ActiveState.com/activeperl/APi509e.exe
ftp://ftp.linux.activestate.com/pub/ActivePerl/APi509e.exe
http://www.ActiveState.com/activeperl/download/APi509e.exe
Win95 seem to need DCOM, too:

LaTeX2HTML DOS
http://saftsack.fs.uni-bayreuth.de/~latex2ht/l2h98_2dos.tar.gz
Installation Steps:
1. install PERL, DVIPS, GhostScript, NetPBM, LaTeX
2. unpack LaTeX2HTML, e.g. under C:\TEXMF\LATEX2HTML
3. add the path to GSWIN32C.EXE to the PATH variable in your
AUTOEXEC.BAT
4. modify LATEX2HTML.CONFIG (e.g. with NOTEPAD) to reflect
your needs
5. within DOS box execute:
CD C:\TEXMF\LATEX2HTML
PERL INSTALL-TEST
6. write a small .BAT file in your LaTeX2HTML directory:
PERL C:\TEXMF\LATEX2HTML\LATEX2HTML %1 %2 %3 >> L2H.LOG
%1 is the name of the .TEX file, %2 and %3 are optional
arguments to LaTeX2HTML such as "-split 3".
Note that if you want more than two arguments you will need
to supply more parameters to the .BAT file (%4, %5, etc.)
7. run it with a test document test.tex:
L2H TEST
Maybe you will need to run LaTeX before this, too!
