Are there any plans to replace the ASCII art in the FreeBSD Handbook with simple xfig diagrams? The ASCII looks really out of place in the printed (PostScript) version of the handbook that was recently published. With a few simple changes to the makefile and freebsd.dsl we could pass a variable with the -V option to [Open]Jade and let the DSSSL code decide whether to display the graphic (HTML or PostScript output) or the ASCII figure (Text output). Does this sounds like a logical way to solve the problem? I can provide diffs if someone isn't already working on this. We could pay interns here at BSDI to actually make the graphics. - Murray To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
