The HTAppName and the HTAppVersion are two strings that must be defined in the 
application, for example

	const char HTAppName = "MyApp";
	const char HTAppVersion = "1.0";

Unfortunately the modularity of version 3.1 is not completed with respect to 
the HTML parser mechanism consisting of the stream pipe:

	SGML -> HTML -> HText

It is therefore required to provide dummy stubs for the HText functions which
are declared in HText.h. They can just be dummy functions like

	HText_appendText(...) { }

This is solved in the next version where the core parts of the Library does 
not any longer depend on converters or protocol modules. This means that it 
will become a lot easier to make a tailored application with only the 
converters and protocol you need.

You can have a look at how the HTEventRequestTerminate() is implemented in the 
Line Mode Browser.

Gee - this doesn'y look very smart - but I can ensure you all that the next 
version will become a lot more handy to handle as an application programmer!
