Here is a question with regard to the LaTeX bundle:

I wish to use both pdfLaTeX as well as TtH (a latex to HTML converter). With pdfLaTeX, I have used TextMate as the previewer, but have recently discovered Skim and the synctex (along with the watching) facility. Hence in the LaTeX bundle preferences menu I have selected Skim.

For TtH, I hacked up an very old version of the LaTeX current file script to invoke TtH (attached below). The trouble is this script requires TextMate as the "previewer."

What I don't want is to have to continually switch my preferences back and forth since I might both LaTeX a document in addition to TtH'ing it for posting on the Web.

In a perfect world, I would like the LaTeX bundle to have native support for using TtH. In the absence of that, could someone suggest edit changes to the hacked script I have, or better yet, provide an improved version.

Perhaps the easiest thing to do is use TextMate's web preview facility. press ⌃⌥⌘P to invoke it. at the bottom of the Web Preview window is a check box that says “show options”. A drawer appears, and you may choose to “pipe text through” a script of your choosing. Pipe it through tth.

We could also make a simple command to do this job. Set the contents of the command to this paste: http://pastie.textmate.org/private/npjf1gtijfxrltiwn690q Set “Save: Nothing”, “Input: Entire Document” and “Output: Show as HTML”. This command should work whether or not you've saved the document you are editing.
