\section{Status of Tex2RTF}\index{status of Tex2RTF}%
-Tex2RTF is under continual development, often following users'
-suggestions. From version 1.33, Tex2RTF is effectively in a second phase
-of development. In addition to the bare minimum of syntax and facilities
-for producing useable help systems or linear RTF, commands are being
-added to allow visually effective, even aesthetically pleasing,
-documentation to be produced.
-
-Examples are the \verb$\indented$, \verb$\twocollist$ and \verb$\marginpar$\rtfsp
-commands; over time I hope to be able to reproduce most of the popular
-styles of formatting and presentation in Windows Help files, whilst
-allowing a reasonable equivalent to be generated in the other formats.
-
-Some new developments in the various formats still need to be catered
-for by Tex2RTF, such as Windows 95 help files and HTML 3.0. Features
-that can be added to Tex2RTF as a result of these developments include
-math and inline image map support in HTML, table support in Windows
-Help, and generally better formatting abilities in both. However, documentation
-about these formats is sketchy at the time of writing (October 1995).
+Windows HTML help, and wxWindows 2 wxHTML help, are now catered for using
+the htmlWorkshopFiles setting.
+
+Tex2RTF is very rarely updated these days: it would be nice to
+rewrite the parser (and indeed the rest of it) at some point,
+to improve error reporting, space handling and ability to
+handle more advanced Tex/Latex commands.
