Unfortunately this diff forces all lists to be description-lists;
that is:  <DL> ..... </DL>
with labels constructed explicitly for each item.

I've just implemented the use of <OL Type=".."> for {enumerate} lists.
It seems that browsers do not adjust the bulleting automatically,
with nested lists, so the coding above needs to explicitly construct
the TYPE=".." attribute, as well as choosing <OL...> whenever possible.

The latest revision is now called  version 2K.1beta .
It should be available at the developer's repository within 24 hours.


Among the improvements are the following,
in response to recent postings of this [l2h] list:

 --  new version number:  v2K.1beta
 --  new switches:  (for PHP and Server-Side Includes (SSI)
        -xbit   sets $XBIT_HACK   uses the apache hack for SSIs
        -ssi    sets $ALLOW_SSI   for SSIs, using  .shtml  with file-names
        -php    sets $ALLOW_PHP   for PHP,  using  .php    with file-names
 --  with  $XBIT_HACK  a .htaccess  file is created when needed
 --  implemented  \HTMLget (analogous usage to \HTMLset) 
        to read and use the values of Perl variables and hashes
 --  further refinements to child-links listings
 --  allow for TOP alignment of images within {tabular}s
 --  allow %section_headings  and  %standard_section_headings to be
        provided by the user, for better control of heading appearance.
        Bibliography, List-of-Figures etc. now use %section_headings
        to determine the <H-num> level to use, instead of fixed tags.
 --  fixed {enumerate} to allow default use of <OL Type=".."> tagging
        thanks to David Rourke and Boris Blankleider for reporting the
        short-comings of the existing subroutines
 --  enumerate types can be adjusted using:  @enum_default_type
        which initially defaults to the array:  ('A', '1', 'a', 'i', 'A')
 --  \hfuzz is now silently ignored, along with its argument


I hope these improvements will be useful,
especially the ability to generate  .shtml  and .php  filenames.

As yet I haven't implemented LaTeX macros for generating SSI or PHP
inclusions. Would someone who needs these please contact me regarding
the syntax required for these.

Oh; thanks for this; a manual edit should suffice to fix it.


All the best for Christmas and New Year,
