Hi Marco, What a great article you've made, thank you very much! I've put a link for it in the docs section of the (new .org) txt2tags website and will make a blog post about it in the txt2tags blog.
I'm very glad txt2tags fit your needs and helped to get you a full book at the end! I've also written a full book as text (in Vim) and txt2tags saved the day to convert it to PageMaker 6.0 (the publisher tool at the time, in 2001). It's really nice to NOT using a word processor in the writing process. Your wishes will be respected, that's exactly my goal. It's really hard to keep things simple, the temptation to add features is always there. By the way, in part 3 of your article I saw that you remove headers and footer in LaTeX output with your shell script. Maybe you could use the txt2tags --no-headers option instead to avoid this extra step? On Wed, Oct 20, 2010 at 05:07, M.
