I am currently working on a direct translation of the LaTeX subset the
GAP manual is using to HTML. Should produce nicer results than the
GAP-LaTeX -> TeXinfo -> HTML translation. For example it uses proper
fonts.

It would also like to hear comments about Steve's HTML document. For
example, is it better to have one document per section or is it better
to have one document per chapter and each section has its own label?

Note that Steve Fisk's converter has problems with some features and
inconsistencies in the GAP manual. For example it keeps the index
entries. Also his handling of '\' is not quite correct, e.g., '\' has
no special meaning in the example environment (|example|).
Also it would be nice if the crossreferences (see "somewhere") where
mapped to references in the TeXinfo manual.

Martin.
