htmlsection manual

Introduction
htmlsection - insert section number in HTML and make the table of contents.
Description
htmlsection is a perl script to insert section number in HTML. When you use htmlsection, you don't have to manage section, table, figure, program-list, and reference numbers and you don't have to make the table of contents, table index, figure index, and program-list index.

If files are specified, htmlsection reads HTML from these files. But, if files are not specified, htmlsection reads HTML from standard input.
