About the node-files option ($NODE_FILES variable). It is true that files with the node name as file name are written for external manual cross refs in case this option is true. However the default is false for this option. --no-ifhtml is specified by using the --no-ifhtml command line switch. It cannot be specified in config file, though. Maybe we should change that by putting html in @EXPAND ? Any concern with that ? default for --iso is false. Maybe we could set it to true in the default case. It would be false for html3.2. It is allready true in xhtml.init. --css-include related stuff is badly explained. It is nicely explained in the texinfo manual and I didn't want to rewrite the whole explanation. For the '.' in temporary directory for latex2html, I have absolutely no clue. Maybe Olaf knows the reason, or maybe we could look at the latex2html doc. > Finally, is there a good reason for the custhtml.texi and custpage.texi > sections being kept outside the texi2html.texi file?

I did it because the original manual was even more splitted. I see no problem in merging the files. I have a remark about your corrections. If we want to conform to the texinfo manual conventions, we should format variables like $SPLIT with @code and not with @var as @var (according to the texinfo manual) is specific for abstract variables (function arguments). Should we conform with this style ? (it is really easy to change because it is in a @macro you rightly did). Pat
