Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
The current maintainer of tex4ht, Andrew Gray [EMAIL PROTECTED],
is apparently not active anymore. Therefore, I orphan this package
now. If you want to be the new maintainer, please take it -- see
http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/index.html#howto-o for detailed
instructions how to adopt a package properly.
Note that Juhapekka Tolvanen [EMAIL PROTECTED] is maybe interested (or maybe
not) in taking over this package, he is not a DD though.

Description: LaTeX and TeX for Hypertext (HTML)
TeX4ht is a highly configurable TeX-based authoring system for producing
hypertext. It interacts with TeX-based applications through style files and
postprocessors, leaving the processing of the source files to the native TeX
compiler. Consequently, TeX4ht can handle the features of TeX-based systems
in general, and of LaTeX in particular.
.
TeX4ht can be used both for authoring HTML using TeX/LaTeX input files, or
for converting existing TeX input files (in any format) into HTML, with
(usually) only minor modifications. Other varieties of hypertext can also be
produced, including XML, XHTML, MathML and the openoffice.org format of XML.
.
You will need ghostscript plus the imagemagick suite of programs to convert
from graphics in DVI files, as output by TeX (via postscript) to GIF, PNG or
JPEG files. Alternatively, you could use ghostscript and programs from the
netpbm package after adjusting TeX4ht's configuration.
