I am trying to get tools enough to do some experimental SGML writing;
that is, I want to be able to typeset the FreeBSD documents and also
try to write some myself, just to try it out.

I have installed ports/textproc/{jade,docbook}. I still do not have
any sgmlfmt command, and I also cannot seem to find any pointers to
where I could get one.

So I guess my question is: What packages is needed to write, preview
and typeset SGML documents? Or where do I read what I need?

Thanks for your time,
Jacob.
