Oh, I thought that TtM was free.  In this case, forget it.

Your post came without attachments.

I much prefer the native MathML support in Mozilla.  The demo pages worked
for me out of the box, provided that the X fonts server is providing the
appropriate type1 math fonts.  The HeVeA way looks too hazardous to me.
Besides, it relies on the <FONT> tag, which is deprecated in HTML 4.01
(http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/present/graphics.html#h-15.2.2)

At any rate, I think that we are talking about the tool to get HTML out of
the scraps of documentations, and that the format for those scraps is going
to be LaTeX.  Right?
