Hi,

I now know why there should be no dot when passing file or dir names 
to latex2html. Otherwise it complains and stops...

For example, this will fail:

$ texi2html -l2h -expand tex -out ../some_dir/resulting_file.html somefile_with_tex.texi

To overcome that issue, I see a possibility which would be to use 
File::Spec->rel2abs. It seems to me that this function is not present in 
all the perl 5 version, bit at least since 5.6. What do you think about that ?
