Hi Geert "I know you can define these links in docbook. However my remark earlier in this thread is how will they work in practice ? How can one document on the system know where the other is stored ? I presume this means we should have strict rules about the relative locations of documents. And those should be communicated properly to gnucash-documentation packagers for various distributions"
The links between different docbook documents can be handled with XML catalogues. It looks like you define generic paths for links during the document build and use those generic names as the URLs in the code you call to bring them up in the program. The generic names are linked by xsltprocto the actual URLs in the catalog.xml file which resides by default in /etc/xml/catalog but can be redirected to something like /usr/share/gnucash/xml/catalog.xml with an environment variable XML_CATALOGUE_FILE during the document build. xsltproc appears to construct the links between the files. Not sure how the program handles that. I'll keep digging to see what i can come up with. Not sure about what happens with the PDF etc but I think xsltproc uses specific xsl files to process them the same as it does now.
