Description

   devdoc is the tool to translate simple subset of Latex markup language to
   readable formats, such as html or man. It uses extended latex2man script
   as the foundation. latex2man translates Latex sources directly into needed
   format with perl, and avoids real Latex rendering. Thus you may write and
   view results in Latex even without Latex distribution, such as TexLive
   (which is quite heavy). Just a little subset of Latex is available for
   such handling, but it is perfectly enough for plain documentation.

   devdoc provides some additional procedures for mass translation of entire
   directories with documentation, usage of html templates and
   cross-references inside files.

Install

   To install devdoc into dedicated directory $HOME/rrr/ (default):

     $ ./install.sh

   That is equal to:

     $ DESTDIR=${HOME}/rrr ./install.sh

   To install somewhere system-wide:

     $ DESTDIR=/usr/local ./install.sh

   Do not install directly to real system path like /usr with ./install.sh!
   Use separated directories for self-installed stuff. Install into working
   system with packages.
