remove line break after first <li> item

[sanette]

Currently the first item of an itemize environment is not rendered exactly as the other ones: there is a line break after <li...>, as in the following example:

<ul class="itemize"><li class="li-itemize">
item1
</li><li class="li-itemize">item2
</li><li class="li-itemize">item3
</li></ul>

This turns out to be a problem for some CSS list styles, like the "inside" style, where the line break is converted into a space.

Would it be possible to simply remove this line break? so as to obtain:

<ul class="itemize"><li class="li-itemize">item1
</li><li class="li-itemize">item2
</li><li class="li-itemize">item3
</li></ul>

I have a patch here that opens a paragraph for \item to avoid
mixed content and to simplify styling lists with CSS. The HTML
output looks like this (after wrapping and indenting with tidy):

  <ul class="itemize">
    <li class="li-itemize">
      <p><span class="monospace">\epsilon</span>: є; <span class=
      "monospace">\varepsilon</span>: ε;</p>
    </li>
    <li class="li-itemize">
      <p><span class="monospace">\kappa</span>: κ; <span class=
      "monospace">\varkappa</span>: ϰ (AMST<sub>E</sub>X);</p>
    </li>

I have run into style-ability problems, too before this patch.

You get intended output by writing \begin{itemize}\item..., i.e. no newline before first \item. This is more a workaround than a solution.

Should be ok by now, having merged PR #63. Would you please check that the new code fixes your issue?

aside question, is there an easy way to create a local opam package for the dev version of hevea?

I have nether thought about doing that, considering that compiling hevea from sources is relatively easy (no requirement other than ocamlbuild).

what I would like is to be able to switch between two versions easily. If there is a simple way to uninstall the dev version, that's maybe enough

I can easily add some uninstall entry in Makefile and will do. Notice that you can use two version of hevea easily by using compete command names. Assuming you have standard hevea installed normally, whatever the method. You can for instance install the dev version of hevea in your home directory with make all install PREFIX=$HOME. Then, you access to the dev version as ~/bin/hevea.

[maranget]

Complement, for make all install PREFIX=$HOME to work properly you have to call make clean beforehand.
