I read the section "Support for different languages" of the book
"The LaTeX Web Companion", and I knew the "standard way" to
change the language of latex2html.
(1) date format
I have two questions for language and date format.
In default, english.perl (this may be the default language) does
not seems to be loaded, and local date format &'language'_today()
defined in 'language'.perl does not seems to be used. I think it
is enabled by the following change in the definition of
&address_data():
($user, &get_date($format,$order));
to
($user, &do_cmd_today());
However, since english.perl is not loaded, this change make a
incorrect date format, such as "14, 2002", in default.
Why &'language'_today() is not used ?
Why 'default language'.perl (=english.perl) is not loaded ?
(2) &do_require_package()
I found a small misprint of the book:
&do_require_package("$LATEX2HTMLSTYLES/german.perl");
should be
&do_require_package("$LATEX2HTMLSTYLES/german");
or the function do_require_package() defined in latex2html.pin
should be modified.
