hevea (1)

hevea [options] <texfile>

This manual page documents briefly the hevea command. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

Using hevea it is possible to translate large documents written in LaTeX, such as manuals, books, etc., very quickly into HTML. All documents are translated as one single HTML file. The output file can be cut into smaller files, using the companion program hacha.

General Options

-version

Show hevea version and exit.

-v

Verbose flag, can be repeated to increase verbosity.

-dv

Add border around some of the block-level elements issued. Specifically, all DIV and P are bordered, while the structure of displayed material is also shown.

-s

Suppress warnings.

-I dirname

Add dirname to the search path.

-o name

Make name the output basename. However, if name is base.html, then the output basename is base.

-e filename

Prevent hevea from loading any file whose name is filename. Note that this option applies to all files, including hevea.hva and base style files.

-fix

Iterate HeVeA until a fixpoint is found. Additionally, images get generated automatically.

-O

Optimize HTML by calling esponja.

-exec prog

Execute file prog and read the output. The file prog must have execution permission and is searched by following the searching rules of hevea.

-francais

Deprecated by babel support. This option issues a warning message.

-help,--help

Print version number and a short help message.

-rsz

Size of leaves in rope implementation. The default is 1024. Ropes are a datastructure internally used by hevea to represent large pieces of text.

Options controlling the generation of HTML code

-entities

Render symbols by using entities. This is the default.

-textsymbols

Render symbols by English text.

-moreentities

Enable the output of some infrequent entities. Use this option to target browsers with wide entities support.

-mathml

Produces MathML output for equations, very experimental.

-pedantic

Be strict in interpreting HTML definition. In particular, this option disable size and color changes inside <PRE>... </PRE>, which are otherwise performed.

Options for alternative output formats

-text

Output plain text. Output file extension is .txt.

-info

Output info format. Output file extension is .info.

-w width

Set the line width for text or info output, defaults to 72.
