3.3. HTMLDOC

HTMLDOC is available from http://www.easysw.com/htmldoc/ as source code and binary, although the functionality of the binary is supposed to be limited. I did not try this out but compiled a new binary.

Only required is the htmldoc.exe and a few font files which as a default are expected by the binary in „ C:\Program Files\htmldoc . This ZIP file contains all files (Version 1.8.21). Make sure that the binary htmldoc.exe is found in the PATH. This is done by copying it to the Windows directory. If you do not like this, create a new directory for such tools (I use „ C:\Programme\bin “) and adapt the path so that the directory is included. Test this by entering htmldoc in the prompt. The following should be displayed:

[C:\ ]$ htmldoc
