Hello Nicolas and Jambunathan,
Many thanks, to you both, for such quick and detailed responses!
I look forward to checking things out later today.
And yes, +1 to Bastien for recommending!
Regarding your notes on image and file paths:

The "g:/" is a Windows artifact, indicating the drive. On Unix
systems, root "/" is unique; on Windows there can be many drives
indicated by letters at the root (c:/, d:/, .. z:/). The most common
default for first hard disk is "c:/", but other letters are often used.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drive_letter_assignment
I think that it would be generally useful to be able to remove
the drive letter, so that c:/ or g:/ is transposed into just /
so that when the link-string is passed to a publishing system,
such as Drupal, it can easily digest it for further processing.
Thanks again for all your work on this!

I will respond to 3 and 4 separately. =A0I need to look at this=
area
closely. (I know nothing about HTML or HTML exporter.)
What is "g:/" here. =A0Is it the publishing directory or the curr=
ent
directory. =A0Given that, does removing the leading "g:/" a speci=
fic
requirement of yours or is it generally useful to anyone.
