Watson Email: phoebe.watson@diespam.usa.net Date: 1998/09/16 word2html Version Sep2-98 word2html (word-to-html) is a program that converts Microsoft Word 6+ (version 6 or later) documents (.DOC) to HTML. It runs on OS/2 and MS-DOS/Windows. The OS/2 version requires the emx runtime emx.dll. The DOS version requires the emx runtime emx.exe or rsx.exe. word2html is Free software. Src incl. The latest OS/2-DOS version is Sep2-98. It is functionally equivalent to version M1 which may be available at other servers (M1 includes the emx runtime DLL). It is the first version I did. The official word2html for OS/2 and DOS homepage is http://www.d3.net/joerg/word2html.html Get emx runtime from (emxrt) from www.leo.org (OS/2 sect.)

Elser is a program that actually was designed to convert Word documents easily to HTML documents. Anyway, this is a pretty difficult task. So the current release of Elser does many things, except such a conversion. Assume to see a very first result done on the way to understand Word and then to convert it. Laola/Elser requires the Perl programming language to be installed.
