David Palmer has given me permission to make his Describe -> HTML macros on my
web site. They will be found at:
    http://www.uwm.edu/People/gwc/os2/describe.html

This is a set of macros, invoked from a tool bar (included), that greatly
simplifies the creation of HTML documents from within Describe.

It will not, as far as I know, convert Describe documents directly into HTML;
e.g., centered bold text won't be converted to <h1>headline</h1>. It does
include an HTML stripper, however.

Though a tad idiosyncratic, the package works well, and has some very nice
features. And the price is right!

Thanks to Judith A. Russell for informing me about this. And of course, kudos
to Mr. Palmer.

Please drop me a line if you grab the set, and be sure to let Mr. Palmer know
if you're pleased with his work. (That'll motivate him to provide some
enhancements.)
