[l2h] Need dim and half dim symbols

[Bob van der Poel]

I'm doing some "music" docs and am trying to get a small degree sign
and a slashed degree to use for diminished and half-diminished chords.
I tried a few symbols, but ran into problems with the 2 different
symbols not being the same size, so created the following 2 little
definitions

   \newcommand{\diminished}{{\bf\raisebox{.4ex}{o}}}
   \newcommand{\halfdim}{{\bf\raisebox{.4ex}{\o}}}

Not perfect, but acceptable in the latex doc. However, when I use
latex2html the box is NOT raised, so the 2 symbols appear on the same
baseline as the rest of the text. Not good.

So, I tried putting a $ $ around the defs. Okay, not I get a poor
resolution O for both, and it is raised. But there is no slash in the
\halfdim.

I checked, and math should be working ... here's the command line
sucked out of my makefile:

latex2html  -split +1  -dir html  -no_footnode  -local_icons  \
		 -up_url ../mma.html -up_title "Main MMA Reference" -html_version
4.0,latin2,unicode \
		 $(TARG).tex

And I checked my ~/.latex2html-init file and nothing there about math.
So, this should be working :)

I'm doing something wrong. Or does someone have a recommended set of symbols?
