Abstract: tohtml is specifically designed to work hand-in-hand with ishere, forming a unified workflow embodied by the phrase: everything is here: from do to html. This design philosophy emphasizes a minimalist approach to reproducible research—where "is here" corresponds to the ishere command (marking where elements belong), and "to html" corresponds to the tohtml command (converting marked logs into polished reports). The core principle is simple: everything you need for your analysis lives in one place—your do-file. You mark locations with ishere, run your analysis, and tohtml transforms the log into a professional HTML report. No external tools, no manual editing, no copy-pasting—just a streamlined path from code to publication-ready output. tohtml converts Stata log files containing ishere markers into formatted HTML reports. The command can process a single log file or a directory containing multiple table and figure files. The latter gathers all table and figure files in the directory in a HTML.
