[Firebird-docs] DocBook

[Andy C. <an...@ad...>]

I downloaded 'ant', which requires a java package. I've downloaded the =
java package but haven't installed it yet. If and when I get them =
working I can run the script to download jboss which is supposed to be a =
sample set of manuals in DocBook format.

At the moment it's seems like a bit of work. If I can just email my =
stuff to Joseph Alba, and let him worry about pasting it into some HTML =
generator system, I'll skip it. I can tell you exactly what DocBook DTD =
I use; none yet. The one chunk I submitted so far was RTF (Rich Text =
Format), which is like a DOC file only not binary and not propriatary. =
When my FoxPro or C++ code wants to crank out a report, it generates an =
RTF file which I distribute by diskette or email.

Andy, Joseph and other who wan't to contribute to the documentation,
I've downloaded, installed and tried to use Docbook but it is really
complicated to start. If anyone out there has already put together the =
frame
for the documentation using Docbook please tell me.
I've seen a message from Andy containing a first draft of the Firebird =
docu,
but as I only have digest mode I can not download the attachment, so =
please
tell me which format you have used!
