Hello,

I tried to install latex2html after a LyX intallation (I tested Uwe's
installer, but I guess it would be the same with Angus's).

latex2html does not install if the utilities gs and netpbm have
spaces in the path. I copied gs in C:\texutils (as recommended)
in the l2h install doc), in parallel with netpbm.

The config.bat chokes because of the pnmcrop.exe which is in the
C:\Program Files\LyX\bin directory
(I have this in the path).

Latex2HTML does not ask for a change in the path (it has his own
env variables), and I can solve this by adding C:\texutils\netpbm\bin
in the path, but I wonder if this is local (LyX\bin might be in *my* path
because of the tests on the installer I ran since august 2005)
or if this can be reproduced.

A side question is about the installer itself:
would it be a good idea to install gs and netpbm (instead of pnmcrop alone)
in C:\ instead of Program Files ? As we do it for Aspell already...
Is a shortcut enough ?

Kind regards, and many thanks for the installers, I guess lyx-1.4
will be able to spread like flood with these efficient tools.
