Dear all,
No great expert with latex, latex2html or perl. However upon
installing I found that texexpand was bombing with 'multiple input
files'. The route of the problem was that I had the file in a
subfolder whose path contained spaces (that were not protected on
input to texexpand). I don't know whether this is a known issue (and
there's probably a good perl way(tm) to fix this...!)
I put in this fix:
L2hos->syswait("$TEXEXPAND $dbg -auto_exclude \"$unseg\""
. "-save_styles \"$DESTDIR$dd$TMP_${dd}styles\" "
. ($TEXINPUTS ? "-texinputs \"$TEXINPUTS\" " : '' )
. (($VERBOSITY >2) ? "-verbose " : '' )
. "-out \"$DESTDIR$dd$TMP_$dd$FILE\" "
. "\"$texfilepath$dd$FILE.$EXT\"")
&& die " texexpand failed: $!\n";
print STDOUT "\n *** `texexpand' done ***\n" if ($VERBOSITY > 1);
i.e. quoting the parameters to texexpand. Now it seems to work
magnificently... nice utility!
Best regards,
Adrian.
