The .texi file is not actually TeX. The GNU Texinfo package uses TeX as one of the intermediate components when creating PDF output, and it uses other tools to create plain text, .info, etc. So, I guess, you need to port texinfo. Maybe only trying to isolate the code that creates the TeX intermediate file is viable? Although, I wouldn't be surprised if that uses Perl or somesuch. Sorry for not being helpful, Robby
