3 I have written a simple wrapper around tex4ht to convert tex files to html. This is slow, and currently noisy. I do not recommend it for running from cgi. But for interactive conversion of
4 my old tex4ht based home page, it seems to work OK.
6 The current version is available from
7 [git](http://pivot.cs.unb.ca/git?p=ikiplugins.git;a=blob_plain;f=IkiWiki/Plugin/tex4ht.pm;hb=HEAD)

11 - [[todo/latex]] There is work in progress at converting snippets of latex. No idea how the hybrid approach of tex4ht (part font, part bitmaps) compares to the [[todo/latex]] approach.
13 - pandoc can also convert latex to html or markdown. It is much faster than tex4ht; on the other hand, the rendering quality is not quite as good, and pandoc does not understand user defined TeX macros.
