I think a tutorial will be read 50% on the web and 50% on paper. Hence I'd like to have a good output for both. Latex is good for a paper version, but not so great for program fragments and hyperlinking. I'd really like to have something we links to the library functions are put in automatically and txt2tags could deliver just that. > There are several front-ends for multi-platforms, converting to XHTML, > PDF...or it is the best to 'learn' txt2tags and be happy? I think txt2tags is great since you don't need to learn much. Haddock is much more difficult to learn than txt2tags. Shall we give it a go and revisit the issue if it txt2tags doesn't deliver? It's probably easiest to convert txt2tags to something else rather than Latex or even DocBook. Hence if txt2tags doesn't work out it wouldn't be the end of the world. Axel. |
