-The main output routines now more or less work.
+TODO:
+1. InsetTabular
+2. InsetTOC
+3. The counter patch, and better output for InsetRef.
+4. Better output for citations, meaning better labels. Numerical, as said below,
+ should be easy, and author-year oughtn't to be THAT hard. But it'll need a
+ bit of work.
+5. CSS needs work in several places, mostly floats. Maybe check elyxer on that.
+6. MathML
-Known issues:
-* InsetLine normally appears in a standard environment, which puts <hr /> inside
- <p>, in violation of the DTD. I guess we could close the paragraph and then do
- the <hr />, but isn't there a better solution? There's actually a LyX bug here,
- I think, since a line surely ought not appear in a normal paragraph?
-* The same issue arises with InsetVSpace, unsurprisingly. And also with the inline
- version of InsetListings.
-* One option here, actually, would be to use just <div> and never use <p>, setting
- the spacing and such via CSS.
-* The code that manages the nesting of tags is pretty primitive. It needs a lot
- of work.

-These insets are basically done, though there are probably issues here and there,
- and there are even some FIXMEs:
- Bibitem, Branch, Caption, Collapsable, Footnote, Hyperlink, Info, Label, Line,
- Listings, Marginal, Note, Newline, Newpage, Quotes, Space, SpecialChar, Wrap
-
-These insets do nothing for XHTML:
- ERT, OptArg, Phantom
These insets work but still need work:
- InsetBibtex: There are a few issues here. One is that the output is not very
- nice. This will be solved, though, by a patch of mine I seem to have forgotten
- to finish. To get output that accorded with the BibTeX style, of course, we'd
- have to parse the bbl file. I don't know if that's worth it.
- Another issue concerns cross-references. At the moment, we simply use the
- xref information for every entry, rather than listing the xref separately and
- then referencing it. That should not be terribly hard, but it would take a bit
- of work.

InsetBox: The CSS isn't there yet.

+ InsetCitation: This has two limitations as of 20 XI 2009. The first is that we
ignore the citation style and output square brackets, no matter what. The
second is that, with BibTeX, we simply use the BibTeX key as the citation
string, thus ignoring numerical, author-year, etc. It will not be too hard
the bbl file, which of course is the only fully general solution.
InsetFlex: I think this one is OK, but it needs some testing.
InsetFloat: This seems to work OK, but it will need testing and tweaking.
+ InsetGraphics: This works in a pretty primitive way, in that it outputs the graphic
+ and appropriate img tag. But we don't yet do any sort of scaling, rotating, and
+ so forth. That won't be hard, since we can just call ImageMagick to do this for
+ us, but appropriate routines will need to be written.
+ InsetRef: At present, we just use the label name as associated text, and put it
+ into square brackets. It'd be nice to be able to do more, but for that we'd need to
+ associate counters with the labels, and we don't have that yet.
These insets do not work and are not yet scheduled to work:
InsetExternal: It may be that this won't be too hard, but I don't understand
to TocBackend.
These do not yet work and need some attention:
- InsetGraphics: This should be fairly straightforward, but I'll need to learn a bit
- about export formats, etc, to get it completely right. We'll also want to make
- some use of the params, eg, on width and height. I guess there is also some
- issue about converting the graphics formats?
- InsetInclude: I think we just want to include it, straightforwardly. Probably will
- base this more on the latex() routine, then. Another possibility, maybe with a
- flag of some sort, would be to do it as a separate file, to which we link.
- InsetRef: Presumably, this is an internal link. But what should the text be, and how
- should we get it? Probably some validation thing again, where labels tell us where
- they are. Alternatively, we could parse the aux file.
InsetTabular: This shouldn't be too hard, but will need doing.
InsetTOC: We should just be able to use what we have in the TOC. To get links to
work, though, we'll need to co-ordinate the writing of anchors in the sections,
