mkhtmlindex - generate index files for HTML man pages

       The  version of the mkhtmlindex included in this X.Org Foundation release was originally written by David
       Dawes wrote as a part of XFree86.

       Colin Watson wrote this manual page, originally for the Debian Project.

X Version 11                                      imake 1.0.10                                    mkhtmlindex(1)

       The  mkhtmlindex  program  generates  index  files  for  a  directory of HTML-formatted manual pages.  It
       searches for files whose names are of the form “name.1.html”, and outputs index  files  “manindex1.html”,
       “manindex.2.html”,  and so on, one for each manual volume.  Empty index files will be removed.  Names and
       descriptions are found by scanning the first <H2> section of each page.

       mkhtmlindex - generate index files for HTML man pages

       This utility is currently rather specific to X manual pages.  In particular,  the  format  of  the  index
       files it outputs is not configurable, nor is the HTML formatting it expects of manual pages.

mkhtmlindex takes only one argument: the directory to process.
