So far, we've just used man pages, but we would like to swith to something that would allow us to translate the base documentation into multiple formats. I understand that the FreeBSD project is now using some SGML tools for it's documentation. Is that correct?. It that how the FreeBSD Handbook is being done? If this is true, I would like to find out more info about what tools you use. If possible, I would like to acquire copies of these tools. Thanks, Also, I must say that FreeBSD 2.1 is way cool! Keep up the good work guys. Richard Coleman coleman@math.gatech.edu
