# Copyleft and GPL Tutorial Materials
This repository contains various tutorial materials regarding the suite of GNU General
Public Licenses and copyleft (as applied to software).
The primary item of interest is an omnibus book on copyleft that is built
from the comprehensive-GPL-guide.tex file.
Hack tex4ht's overlib stuff to use jQuery tooltip tex4ht supports "overlib" for footnote popups. The hack is pretty straightforward; it dumps a Javascript area into a .js file that can then be used by overlib to popup stuff. This hack is to use that output to make the same thing work with jQuery UI's tooltip widget. Note that we run with overlib support first, then *without* it in the Makefile setup. This is to force the needed .js file to be generated, but make sure the HTML doesn't try to load overlib (which is default). (This should be adapted as a patch to upstream tex4ht ultimately.) Also included herein are improvements to the Makefile to build the HTML output.
