Thanks, Eitan!  I downloaded tex4ht-1.0.2006_08_19_2227.tar.gz from
the above mentioned page and tar xzvf'd it. But now I am "scratching
my head" ... how do I update my installation?

On http://www.cse.ohio-state.edu/~gurari/TeX4ht/mn.html it says:

"Installation
...
The easiest way to establish an up to date port is to download an
installed distribution of the system, and refresh it with the files
provided here."

I also looked at:

http://www.cse.ohio-state.edu/~gurari/TeX4ht/mn-unix.html#QQ1-22-38

but I'm still lost.

Hmmmm... I already have an installed distribution (created from
tex4ht-1.0.2004_07_12_2015-0.fdr.1.rh90.i386.rpm, I believe). I have

  $ which htlatex
  /usr/bin/htlatex
  $ which tex4ht
  /usr/bin/tex4ht

and

  ls /usr/share/tex4ht
  dbcontext   ht      mztex     teimex   uxhtex   xhmex
  ...

etc.

In what I downloaded I see:

  $ cd ~/tex4ht-1.0.2006_08_19_2227
  $ ls
  bin  src  temp  texmf

Now what? What to do? The contents of temp do not match the
description in mn-unix.html above. How do I update the stuff
in /usr/bin, etc.?

Do you have any recipe for upgrading my installation that a
lesser human being might be able to follow? ;)

Sorry for being dense. I would really appreciate any help or
pointers. Thanks.
