Thank you very much for your help.  But I tried the maxima_file_names_old.pm
and I get this error:

makeinfo: warning: error loading
/home/toy/src/sourceforge/maxima-code/doc/info/es/../texi2html.init:
Undefined subroutine
&Texinfo::Config::texinfo_register_file_id_setting_function called at
/home/toy/src/sourceforge/maxima-code/doc/info/es/../texi2html.init line 42.

I'm using texinfo 6.8.

In case it matters, texi2html.init also has this at the very top, before
the code you provided:

$options->{"EXTRA_HEAD"} = '<link rel="icon" href="figures/favicon.ico">
<script src="https://polyfill.io/v3/polyfill.min.js?features=es6
>"></script>';

The polyfill is needed because apparently a maxima frontend is using IE to
display html docs and mathjax doesn't work without that.  (I already
suggested it's time to update the frontend to some other browser, but I
don't know how that would work.)
