Docbook is an +SGML/XML documentation format that is becoming standard on free +operating systems. It's also used for Samba documentation. + +The SGML files are source code that can be translated into various +useful output formats, primarily PDF, HTML, Postscript and plain text. + +To do this transformation on Debian, you should install the +docbook-utils package. Having done that, you can say + + docbook2pdf rsync.sgml + +and so on. + +On other systems you probably need James Clark's "sp" and "JadeTeX" +packages. Work it out for yourself and send a note to the mailing +list. + |
