[Corelinux-develop] Re: PDF generation problem fixed.

    Hans> If you look at the cppstnd.tex document, you'll find something like "${}$Revision: 1.3

good
    Hans> latex2html convert the empty equations "${}$" to pictures and we can see empty rectangles
    Hans> on the browser. Later on, one of the TeX gurus, Don Arseneau, pointed me to rcs.sty. I
    Hans> tried it and it worked well.  However, rcs.sty is not part of the tetex instalation
    Hans> package.  How should we go about using this package? Should we put it under htdocs/tex
    Hans> subdir or should we let the users install their own rcs.sty?
you can put it in htdocs/tex
this is the place for tex/latex2html related files

    Hans> Another question: there are two date strings on the title. "May 8, 2000" and
    Hans> "Documentation revised May 14, 2000". What are these dates? Which one can be generated by
    Hans> RCS keyword $Date$?
the first date is the date of creation 
the second dsate is the revision date
the second must be changed

    Hans> Once the issues are finalized I'll make another cvs commit.
good
