# HTML to LaTeX beamer link corrector

# For a temp fix to beamer links being incorrect for some L4 requirement references.
# Appears to be occurring at the HTML level / maybe how Doorstop is publishing for this version with longer prefixes?
# Later updates / open GitHub Issue tasks look like they will fix this but will be awhile until its fully working
# (Doorstop & Modules Updates)
# Eventually will combine some scripts or remove them (with updates) for fewer files / places to change overall.
