<P>html2sgml is a program wich converts html to sgml accroding to linuxdoc.sgml.
With a file in linuxdoc.dtd format you can create nice typset books, well
structured html-documents and so forth. linuxdoc.dtd is the format used in Linux
HOWTOS, for example.
<P>html2sgml i tuned to work well with Applix HTML, and will convert any
footnotes apearent in the applix word-file that was used to produce the
html.
<P>To use html2sgml you need Perl. To use the image converting routines you also
need: giftopnm, ppmtopgm and pnmtops
<P>To do something usefull with the resulting file you also need linuxdoc-sgml or
