Hello, The msg below was originally intended for Steve L, another Ant developer, but I have had trouble contacting him so I am now sending this to a wider audience.
I am trying to improve the Ant documentation. I would like to have a single multi-platform open format document. I understand that the project preference is to use DocBook. I am using an approach which, with the help of some scripts I am working on, will finally result in a DocBook Ant manual. As a stepping stone to this end I am doing the document in LaTeX. I have an awk script to do the LaTeX2DocBook conversion. This needs to be rewritten in Perl so that it is portable. Attached is the result of running latex2html on the source. Please let me have some feedback on this ASAP. This is quite alot of work and I am only roughly half-way through. I need to know if people will be happy with this. Thanks, Andrew Marlow. >Hello Steve, > >Attached is a gzip'd tarball of some HTML that was generated >from the LaTeX ANT manual I am working on.
