I am not exactly sure, I haven't understood exactly in which language you were converting to, but for such conversion, another possibility could be to use texi2html instead of makeinfo, with an init file. Since you seem to be a perl programmer this shouldn't be too hard. You can have a look at example/mediawiki.init (which can be used to convert to mediwiki markup) and example/makeinfo.init which leads to some html with the makeinfo formatting style. -- Pat
