Inštalácia LaTeX2HTML vo Windows

LaTeX2HTML-2002-2-1, Windows XP SP1, MikTeX 2.4.1461

Na pripravu potrebujeme:

• LaTeX2HTML

• Perl (napr. ActiveState Perl)

• netpbm – binarky (pouzita verzia 10.8.14)

• Odbalime LaTeX2HTML do docasneho adresara

• Nainstalujeme netpbm

• Zeditujeme prefs.pm v adresari, kam sa odbalil LaTeX2HTML.

  • $prefs{'PREFIX'} udava cestu, kam sa to nainstaluje
  • $prefs{'EXTRAPATH'}] treba nastavit na cestu k nainstalovanemu ghostscriptu a netpbm.

  Pravdepodobne kvoli chybe v parsovani cesty (asi vadia dvojbodky) mi fungovalo len toto riesenie – netpbm, ghostscript na rovnakom disku ako instalacky LaTeX2HTML, cesty bez uvedenia pismena jednotky: $prefs{'EXTRAPATH'} = '\\Utility\\Alladin\\GS\\gs7.03\\bin;\\MikTeX\\texmf-local\\netpbm\\bin';) Alternativne mozno cesty upravit rucne v konfiguraku l2hconf.pm.

• pridat cestu k bin adresaru kniznic netpbm do PATH

• v distribucii netpbm bolo treba premenovat subory bez pripony na subory EXE (binarne) a rozkopirovat perl.exe pod prislusnymi nazvami (perlove skripty). Napr. pre subor pnmfile bolo treba skopirovat do adresara perl.exe pod nazvom pnmfile.exe.

• v adresari instalaciek spustime config.bat

  • ak sa konfiguracia zastavi pri detekcii verzie dvipsu, treba viackrat stlacit Enter…

• spustime test.bat

• spustime install.bat

Dalsie rady z Usenetu:

Ok. Now I know what version of NetPBM you have and it is the same as mine. Also I have to take back some of what I said: I tried deleting and reinstalling both latex2html and netpbm and the error I thought went away came back. Aparently, I did something I can’t remember doing.

Anyway, the following finally worked for me:

(I deleted all of latex2html and restored it from the archive. Same with netpbm. You don’t necessarily need to do these, but I had made a bunch of changes and wanted to start from scratch.)

Then:

• I changed ‘gray85’ to ‘#D9D9D9’ on or about line 1511 in pstoimg.pin
• I edited prefs.pm. I changed only EXTRAPATH and PREFIX.
• I renamed the netpbm file pnmfile to pnmfile.exe
• I made sure the netpbm files were in my PATH variable
• I ran config.bat
• I ran test.bat

That worked here. (I don’t understand why the change to gray85 is necessary. It seemed unnecessary at one point, but now I can’t get things to work without it.)

As to your confusion: I hope the above is clear enough.

You might also want the following:

In the version of netpbm we both have, the following are actually executable programs, but do not have the .exe extension. I renamed them all, adding the .exe extension:

• bmptoppm,

• gemtopbm,

• pgmedge,

• pgmnorm,

• pgmoil,

• pgmslice,

• pnmarith,

• pnmfile,

• pnminterp,

• pnmnoraw,

• ppmnorm,

• ppmtojpeg,

• and ppmtouil

The following are perl scripts. I added the .pl extension to them:

• manweb,
• pnmflip,
• pnmquant,
• ppmfade,
• ppmrainbow,
• ppmshadow

The following are shell scripts, requiring some incarnation of sh to interpret:

• anytopnm,

• hpcdtoppm,

• pamstretch-gen,

• pcdovtoppm,

• pnmindex,

• pnmmargin,

• ppmquantall,

• ppmtomap

If you run latex2html inside a sh shell, you may not need to do any renaming.
