I have written a simple wrapper around tex4ht to convert tex files to html. This is slow, and currently noisy. I do not recommend it for running from cgi. But for interactive conversion of my old tex4ht based home page, it seems to work OK.

The current version is available from git

### Other related ideas/plugins:

- latex There is work in progress at converting snippets of latex. No idea how the hybrid approach of tex4ht (part font, part bitmaps) compares to the latex approach.

- pandoc can also convert latex to html or markdown. It is much faster than tex4ht; on the other hand, the rendering quality is not quite as good, and pandoc does not understand user defined TeX macros.
