One question Dekel, is the converter able to distinguish the linuxdoc and
the docbook cases, since both use the sgml extension?
I am trying to figure what your code does, to update the docbook and
linuxdoc generations.
should it be:
\converter linuxdoc dvi "sgml2latex -o dvi $$FName"
\converter docbook dvi "sgmltools -b dvi $$FName"

Also is it possible to have different viewers for docbook and linuxdoc.
Example: most of the times the lyx file, when converted from docbook (or
linuxdoc) to html generates a directory.
This directory is called `basename $$FName .sgml`
With the present scheme this isn't possible. Or at least have a way
that works with both linuxdoc/docbook and latex.
