Of course, I'll be happy to contribute. I just created a fresh account on
github (user name: fpz). Is this that you need? If not, you can use my name
but prefer this email address: francesco.pizzolante-Re5JQEeQqe9fmgfxC/sS/w@public.gmane.org Thanks.

I will have a look at this soon.

That's an idea. I'll have a look.

I went the shell script way because I already had a shell script for the pdf
part (with several iterations to get the references right). I will have a look
at your proposition and see if I can make it work the emacs way too...

Thanks.

Talk to you soon.
