Re: [Phplib-users] linuxdoc to docbook

[Peter T. <pte...@te...>]

Check out www.lyx.org

Lyx is a so called WYSIWIM text processor and capable of generating Docbook 
sgml documents, using sgmltools.
(Unfortunately import functions are limited, but it's fairly easy to cut 
and paste an ASCII file into Lyx format).
Tool is not completed yet, but usable.
(alternatively you could use emacs, but in my opinion less user friendly.

An example of Lyx usage can be found here:

The Linux+IPv6-HOWTO, maintained by Peter Bieringer.

Hint: use fix4, there are some bugs in previous version regarding the
generated SGML code (e.g. "colspec" tag and "<" chars in
code-formatted lines).


LyX file is available at (there are also some Perl tools there):
http://cvsview.linuxdoc.org/index.cgi/users/Peter-Bieringer/

and the exported SGML:
http://cvsview.linuxdoc.org/index.cgi/howto/docbook/Linux%2bIPv6-HOWTO.sgml

and the LDP generated HTTP:
http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/Linux+IPv6-HOWTO/index.html

Let me know if I can assist in some way.

Cheers,
Peter
