Eeek! This thread has gotten completely jumbled up between the text-processing/HTML->LaTeX stuff and the rest of our shenanigans.

I wasn't pleased at all with Gutenmark in the past. For some text-processing stuff, pacify already seems to work better... and manual fixing-up can easily enough take the file the rest of the way.

So while it does have the same aims... I've found it an inconstant mistress.
