[NTG-context] ConTexT conversion to html/rtf/odt
Hi there,
I'm in a situation where I have to do some documentation which should
be available in html and rtf/odt (would be nice to have).
I do not need any fancy stuff, just simple things: ordered,
unordered lists, verbatim, tables etc.
As a ConTeXt newbie I thought this might be a good idea to get into
ConTeXt. However, I'm not quite sure how to create HTML from ConTeXt.
What I tried so far:
Created a simple document:
\starttext
\section{Some section}
\startitemize[1]
\item bla bla
\stopitemize
\stoptext
Tried htcontext test.tex and got:
! Undefined control sequence.
argument dl class=dd-\itemlevel
\HCode ...ode \leavevmode \fi \ht:special {t4ht=#1
}\fi
\a:itemize-group ... {dl class=dd-\itemlevel }
\global \let \end:dd
=\empty
\dostartitemgroup ... {\dodostartitemgroup [#2][]}
\fi
to be read again
\item
l.6 \item
bla bla
?
Perhaps there is some stupidity from my side. If yes I appreciate any
corrections. If no then htcontext from package tex4ht doesn't really
work for ConTeXt and then I would like to know what other alternatives
I have. Also regarding rtf or/and odt.

Thanks,
Manfred

Run context filename. This will create a filename.export file in your
current directory that looks like this:
?xml version='1.0' standalone='yes' ?
!-- input filename : back --
!-- processing date : Sat Nov 6 16:55:02 2010 --

Since you do not need any fancy features, a simpler option is to use
markdown as your starting format and use pandoc to convert it to context,
html, and odt. However, creating even slightly complicated tables in
markdown is a pain, unless your editor supports an ascii table mode.
