Lastest release
The sphinx document processor generates HTML that uses more advanced syntax than the HtmlHelp browser in wxPython and wxWidgets can render. This program uses the htmlhelp files generated by sphinx as input and attempts to remove elements that confuse the wxHtmlHelp system while adding or modifying elements in an attempt to allow the wxHtmlHelp to render the HTML as closely as possible to the HTML as viewed by a modern browser.
This package provides a script sphinx-wxoptimize that is designed to be integrated into your make htmlhelp target that will automatically reprocess the sphinx-generated htmlhelp files and convert them to be better rendered in the wxPython or wxWidgets wxHtmlHelpController.
Features
Currently converts the following to be better rendered in wxHtmlHelpController:
- fixes anchor links
- removes extra linebreaks caused by div tags
- adds a line break after center-aligned images
- fixes left margin issues of mulitple paragraphs in definition lists
- removes unnecessary CSS and JavaScript
- removes the search link from the index page

to:
htmlhelp: $(SPHINXBUILD) -b htmlhelp $(ALLSPHINXOPTS) $(BUILDDIR)/htmlhelp sphinx-wxoptimize $(BUILDDIR)/htmlhelp

ChangeLog
1.2
- Fixed bug in single paragraph definition lists including inline markup
(italics, bold, etc.)
1.1
- Now removes unnecessary CSS and JavaScript files from _static directory to
reduce the size of the distributed HtmlHelp. The wxHtmlHelpController can't use the CSS and JavaScript anyway, so there's no need to include it.
1.0
- Initial release
