It starts getting readable, so I better stop now.
That's actually quite elegant, in fact. Well done!
Incidentally, I stumbled across htlatex and start to wonder whether
this would be a good start for tex2lyx. It is able to process the
macros above...
Yes, I'd considered that, too. It obviously has a decent TeX parser in
there. That said, have you look at plastex? It's python, but it also
seems to have a good parser, and it gives you a DOM-like structure that
can be manipulated all kinds of ways.
