Sure, you can email me directly. I have received other requests to remove
parsing errors from the output; I should probably do that for the next
version.

OK, I made an incorrect assumption when I wrote the above.

Yes, your intentions (output numbered by actual paper pages) is quite alien
to eLyXer and even to the HTML format itself. Apart from cutting pages at a
fixed number of words, or doing some troff-like abomination (the kind you
see on RFCs: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc1866.txt), I don't see how
that would even work. The natural way to do what you want would be to cut
the output by sections; and frankly I don't understand why that solution
doesn't cut it for you (pun intended).

Another request I have received, and which I need myself, is to output
section names as page names, the kind of dash-separated-titles that you see
on blog posts. I should take out some time to work on eLyXer!

Alex.
