[TxMt] Markdown to PDF via Prince REQ

[Robert M. Ullrey]

I am still having troubles getting my multimarkdown to Prince command  
to find the css file. Prince wants to look for it in the /tmp file  
because that is were the generated html file is. So, if my file is  
in: ~/scratch/book.multimarkdown, and my css is also in ~/scratch/ 
book.css, the multimarkdown covention is to then write in the  
beginning of the document:

format: complete
css: book.css

If I convert the document to html and save it in ~/scratch/ then run  
Prince I have no troubles. However, running my script to generate an / 
tmp/$DST.html and then running Prince on it gets me a pdf without the  
stylesheet. I can specify the style sheet in Prince "prince -s ~/ 
scratch/book.css book.css", but that would be impractical for a  
script. What I would love to write is prince -s "$CSS_FILES"  
"$DST.html" /tmp/



Allan gave me a quick ruby script "CSS_FILES=$(ruby <"$TM_FILEPATH" - 
ne 'puts $1 if /<link(?=[^>]*?type="text\/css")[^>]*? 
href="(.*?)"/')", but it does not seem to find ~/scratch/book.css (or  
any other css file) and use it as $CSS_FILES.


Any help appreciated.

Thanks

Robert
