Hi Lorenzo,

Hey, thanks, this is pretty useful :))

But I have two suggestions:

1) Include the tags.j2h file in the Win32 binary distribution file... for
really lazy Windows users :)

2) Add a switch to map tabs to spaces... I want that each tab expand to
three spaces just like in my editor; right now I would need to run a
secondary program to do the tab expansion, or lose my favourite formatting.
Java code usually has lots of identation even without heavily nested control
structures -- thanks to exception, synchronized blocks, class scope, nested
classes... with eight chars per tab the code runs over any right margin
pretty soon!!

The following code produces incorrect syntax highlighting because it
takes everything after the double quotation mark to be a string up until
it encounters a second double quotation mark.

char quot = '\"';

Anyhow, hope this help... Great idea to make a java2html syntax
highlighter.

Hi,

   I just downloaded java2html and started playing with it and it seems
to
me that having a couple of more command line options to specify input
and output files would make life easier:

-input for the input file
-output for the output file

instead of assuming the argv[1] is the input and argv[2] is the output.

This would allow people to do something like:

cat MyFile.java | java2html -output ~/html/HyJava.html

Also, perhaps another command line option to specify the title
of the HTML document when the -doc option is used.

e.g.:

java2html -input MyFile.java -output ~/html/HyJava.html -doc \
-title "Title"

I am attaching a version of java2html.cc with the above changes so
you can see what I mean.

Hello,

Here is a little patch to add some const qualifiers in function
arguments. Without some of them, gcc 2.95 refuses to compile the
program.
