Description: A fast and powerful LaTeX to HTML translator
HeVeA is a LaTeX to HTML translator. Its remarkable features are
- It produces good output. By default (can be turned off) it uses the
symbol face for math symbols. Either way it usually avoids generating
zillions of gif files.
- It is highly configurable through (La)TeX macros. Though aimed at
LaTeX input it understands a fair subset of TeX' macro language.
- It runs fast.

Description: GNU Autoconf, Automake and Libtool Book

has described how these tools work together.

This is the HTML version of the "GNU Autoconf, Automake and Libtool" book by
Gary V. Vaughan, Ben Elliston, Tom Tromey and Ian Lance Taylor and published
by New Riders Publishing, graciously licensed under the Open Publication
License.
That leaves these to be requested for -- the most efficient way of
making your desire for these to be packaged clear is to add a RFP bug
to wnpp, as you eluded to earlier.
