Hi Alexis,

I wrote a script to turn the html documentation into a mom document. The html 
version is not intended to be structured as a book so the resulting pdf is 
just a bunch of chapters. Also, since the conversion is done by an an 
algorithm, choices of page breaks is arbitrary and not ideal. If this is any 
use you can build the pdf with:-

gunzip mom-book.mom.gz
pdfmom mom-book.mom > mom-book.pdf
