Richard,

Thanks for the feedback. HTML docs are now working, but I now get a
differnet error when trying to

Worked a treat.

The error is caused by a combination of items, they are :-
    1) Eli pointed out DOS seperator is ';' not ':'
    2) I needed to explicitly call texi2dvi from a bash shell

I came to almost the same command line as you, but mine was:-
    sh texi2dvi which.texinfo

In both cases I get the error messages. Any ideas on how to fix these?
