"""
If, a little later on, "-tracks=4" is seen, it does:

options.tracks.append(int("4"))
"""

That should read --tracks=4, not -tracks=4

Typos corrected.

There were typos in my original bug report - the typo in the
documentation is still a bug.  Ugh, someone must have brewed decaf.

In fact, the error is not a typo, but a glitch in latex2html's handling
of "--". It's already corrected in the 2.5 branch and needs no
correction in later branches.
