The purpose of dugui is a GUI front end to Docutils.  Just a way to
select an input file, an output path, output format, and options.
A front end for users who are more comfortable with GUI apps than
the command line.

DocFactory is meant to be a complete IDE: editor, processor, and viewer.

I checked in some updates from Gunnar Schwant (DocFactory's author)
on March 21, about six weeks ago.

If your project's goals fit with something existing, it would be best
to work on that.
