Here it runs well, also for many other people, I assume (never
got that complaint).

no :-) It's doing a lot and simplifies to describe functions.
However, I was wrong: The functions *are* displayed, but a bit
ugly (missing spaces etc).

So in general the result should be more or less complete, only
the index is not generated (which is also fed by my \Gfunc{} macro).

Feel free to improve it - it is in CVS. After days of conversion from
the original WinWord format I was happy to have it in this shape.

Maybe you just try
 make html
and check if you like it. Or you go here now:
