[gobo-eiffel-develop] DocBook

[Andreas L. <no...@sb...>]

I had a quick look into DocBook, and I think it is a good idea to use it.
Here is a tutorial for anybody who is interested:
http://nis-www.lanl.gov/~rosalia/mydocs/docbook-intro/docbook-intro.html

On Linux you can use jade or openjade to convert DocBook into HTML/ps/dvi/...
Dunno where the RPMS are, since I had it installed already.

A eXML implementation should be possible - and will probably be usefull as well, 
because we can extend it to pretty print Eiffel source code (the hooks are there).

For the beginning I think it is safe if we start writing (or converting) our docs into DocBook.
We can use the standard tools (jade) to convert the xml to html. Later we can start a Eiffel DocBook tool
(,that initially supports only the subset of the standard that we need).

Andreas
