Apologies in advance if this is already answered somewhere in a README or FAQ:
does an HTML backend similar to the PDF backend exist for lout or is one
considered? It would be great to be able to use lout to lay out documents for
printing and distribution in Postscript and PDF formats and then produce Web
pages from the same lout document source files. A lout to HTML preprocessor
which parses the lout document source and inserts HTML tags (possibly keeping
the lout symbols as comments or wrapping them in XML tags rather than stripping
them out to allow a two-way conversion) would be an alternative to a lout
backend. The main aim though is to start with a lout file and end up with an
HTML file (not vice-versa). My C skills are not up to collaborating on an
lout-to-HTML backend processor but I would be happy to collaborate on a
lout-to-HTML preprocessor in Perl.
