Is any of the programs you mentioned a DJGPP port?  I don't think so.
If I'm right, then I don't think anybody here will be able to help you.  
This forum is for discussing DJGPP and related software.

FWIW, the way to produce HTML from TeX with DJGPP ports is to use the 
TeX4Ht program, which was ported as part of the Web2c package.  I don't 
know how well it handles LaTeX, but I did test TeX4Ht with simnple TeX 
files and got good results.

You can find the binaries in the v2apps/tex directory on the usual DJGPP 
sites; TeX4Ht is in the file t4ht-a8b.zip there.  Be sure to read the file 
TeX.README before you begin downloading, otherwise you might miss some 
required auxiliary package without which the program won't work.
