+LaTeX is a high-quality typesetting system; it includes features
+designed for the production of technical and scientific
+documentation. Latex2html is used for converting Latex files which
+nave a .tex suffix to html.
+
+a basic latex document looks like this:
+
+\documentclass{article}
+\begin{document}
+ Hello World!
+\end{document}
+
+if you save such a document say called helloworld.tex
+then to convert this document to html form, open a terminal
+and cd to where helloworld.tex is.
+
+Then its a simple as
+$latex2html helloworld.tex
