Well, I tried google... and... :( That's why I asked.
I actually know how to do the numbering of eqs, figures, tables (all
the same principle, I use a ~10-line awk/sed script to do this),
chapters (for this slightly modified .NH is ok). I know to use 'refer'
for references (I believe it won't be hard to write a script to
translate bibtech references to refer's), even index production
shouldn't be difficult with the help of Bentley's paper (and I guess I
even won't need this right now).
I have only hesitated over the way (as described in my original, 1st,
post) how references that *depend on physical placement* of certain
text are to be coped with. (As with my page headings; or---probably
even harder so that at least 2-runs of troff are
inevitable---references to page numbers where sth is mentioned. But I
really need just the headings now.)
Thanks!
Ruda
