Those are part of the GNU system, and you can install the packages thru your distro's package system (but I expect they are preinstalled anyway). It might be an inconvenience on non-GNU systems. We give them low priority, but if you feel like writing code in htmlfontify to do without them, that is ok. I would expect it is not very hard to fix htmlfontify to solve all its practical drawbacks. -- Dr Richard Stallman President, Free Software Foundation (https://gnu.org, https://fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (https://internethalloffame.org)
