We are pleased to announce the version 0.98 test release of java2html.

This is a simple program that, given a source java file, produces
an html source with syntax highlighting.

INSTALLATION
------------
See the file INSTALL for building and installation instructions.
java2html has been developed under Linux, using gcc (C++), and
bison (yacc) and flex (lex), and ported under win32 with djgpp
available at http://www.delorie.com

USAGE
-----
java2html only does a lexical analisys of the source code, so the
Java program is assumed to be correct !

here's how to run it:

java2html <input file (a java prog)> <output file (an html)>

if you want a real html document, specify -doc option at the end.
Otherwise you just get some text to copy and paste in you own html pages.
If you choose -doc option the page will have a white background and
your source file name as title.

Use Hello.java to make some test, if you want.
Hello1.html was created without -doc option, Hello2.html with -doc.

you may want to specify your options for syntax highlighting in
the file tags.j2h (If this is not present in the current directory
default colors will be used).
Here's the default tags.j2h delivered with this program:

keyword blue u ;
type green  ;
string red  ;
comment brown i ;
number purple ;

as you might see the syntax of this file is quite straightforward:
b = bold, i = italics, u = underline.
You may also specify more than on of these options separated by commas
e.g.
keyword blue u, b ;

you may see all possible colors in the file colors.html

FEEDBACK
--------
Tell me if you like this software :-)

Actually I want ot extend it, so if you have some ideas...
The most import one will be to make java2html more customizable :-)
