 Hi Owen, et al.,
 
 You might also try this nearly-free ($17)
 ,
 well-supported , database-free CMS
 
 called Kirby .  It is file-based and very easy to
 implement just about anything you want to do on an individual personal
 website. You can also experiment locally with Kirby (without a host) on
 MAMP, XAMPP and PHP's built-in server for local installations.
 
 Cheers,

Re: [FRIAM] [EXTERNAL] Static Site Generator

[Russell Standish]

Interesting. Obviously you didn't use latex2html for this. Did you use
latexml?

I've used latexml as part of a kindle conversion process that goes via
epub.

Cheers

If you like LaTeX  (I can't imagine), you shouldn't stand for converting to 
HTML!
