### DESCRIPTION

> mtex2html is a filter that reads a file in mtex(7) format from its standard input, and writes an HTML (HyperText Markup Language) file to standard output suitable for viewing with World-Wide Web browsers like Netscape(1), Mosaic(1), or lynx(1).

> mtex2html is written entirely in LIM (see lim(1)).

### SPECIAL CHARACTERS

> There are three special characters for the HTML output format. Here are the characters and the strings they are translated to by mtex2html(1):

> "`<`" becomes "`&lt;`"

> "`&`" becomes "`&amp;`"

> To prevent these characters from being translated within the scope of an html environment, you must escape them with a `\` (backslash) character.
