yodl
program. The post-processor is necessary for a variety
of reasons: the HTML output is split into several files, a table of contents
is created, labels and references to labels are resolved.
The post-processor is a program yodl2html-post
and is automatically
activated when the shellscript yodl2html
is used. I therefore strongly urge
you to convert Yodl documents to HTML using this script.
The usage of the post-processor has one important drawback. The yodl
program sec places tags for the post-processor in its output. The
post-processor takes actions according to the tags.
The tags start with .yodltagstart.
and end with .yodltagend.
(though
in upper case, guess why I typed them here in lowercase?). Therefore, you
cannot put these strings in a Yodl document that should be converted to
HTML. The tags would however be harmless in other output formats. (If this
setup that uses tags proves to be a problem, I'll implement a way around it.
Besides, the tags can be configured in the top-level Makefile
when
installiong the Yodl package.)
