@node Texinfo@asis{::}Convert@asis{::}HTML DESCRIPTION
@section Texinfo::Convert::HTML DESCRIPTION

Texinfo::Convert::HTML converts a Texinfo tree to HTML.

@node Texinfo@asis{::}Convert@asis{::}HTML METHODS
@section Texinfo::Convert::HTML METHODS

@table @asis
@item $converter = Texinfo::Convert::HTML->converter($options)
@anchor{Texinfo@asis{::}Convert@asis{::}HTML $converter = Texinfo@asis{::}Convert@asis{::}HTML->converter($options)}

Initialize converter from Texinfo to HTML.

The @emph{$options} hash reference holds Texinfo customization options for the
converter.  These options should be Texinfo customization options
that can be passed to the converter.  Most of the customization options are
described in the Texinfo manual or in the customization API manual.  Those
customization options, when appropriate, override the document content.

See @ref{Texinfo@asis{::}Convert@asis{::}Converter NAME,, Texinfo::Convert::Converter} for more information.

@item $converter->output($document)
@anchor{Texinfo@asis{::}Convert@asis{::}HTML $converter->output($document)}

Convert a Texinfo parsed document @emph{$document} and output the result in files as
described in the Texinfo manual.

@item $result = $converter->convert($document)
@anchor{Texinfo@asis{::}Convert@asis{::}HTML $result = $converter->convert($document)}

Convert a Texinfo parsed document @emph{$document} and return the resulting output.

@item $result = $converter->convert_tree($tree)
@anchor{Texinfo@asis{::}Convert@asis{::}HTML $result = $converter->convert_tree($tree)}

Convert a Texinfo tree portion @emph{$tree} and return the resulting
output.  This function does not try to output a full document but only
portions.  In general it is better to call this function when conversion
is already ongoing, as it requires an association to a document and a suitably
initialized converter formatting state.

@item $result = $converter->output_internal_links()
@anchor{Texinfo@asis{::}Convert@asis{::}HTML $result = $converter->output_internal_links()}
@cindex @code{output_internal_links}

Returns text representing the links in the document.  The format should
follow the @code{--internal-links} option of the @code{texi2any}
specification.  This is only supported in (and relevant for) HTML.
