A new release of the LaTeX2HTML rtranslator (v0.31) is now available.

Here is a summary of the most important changes:

o Image Recycling
Images generated by the translator are reused during subsequent runs.
This offers tremendous improvements in speed after an initial
successful translation.

o Cross-References Between (Local or Remote) Documents
Cross-references between documents (possibly on
remote locations) can be established via symbolic labels which are
independent Such cross-references will be maintained with a
re-translation even after one or more of the documents have been
broken into different physical parts or moved.

o New Options
-external_images
Images -ascii_mode
The navigation icons switch to ascii equivalents and images<
are not "inlined". This option makes documents more portable.

o New Texexpand (contributed by Robert S. Thau <rst@ai.mit.edu>)

o Minor Changes and Bug Fixes<
