As for the level defail, I guess the idea is to extract only a relevant part of the sgml doc: parameter name, summary and advices, default value. Sure the doc can contains more than that, but at least this should be available. As for the context, I think that is is factual enough so as to be able to write documentation that would fit both the doc and the configuration file. -- Fabien Coelho - [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
