I genuinely think this is unneded in this particular case. The documentation team has done a particularly good jon in ensuring that the html FAQ remains quite consistent throughout, e.g., in the specification and usage of anchors. This makes batch conversion quite easy and maintainance-free, as shown by the relatively primitive script I sent. I am working on it to include ports and pf, and then post a link to it here. HTH
