Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: doc-owner@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk I only just discovered this list, and just after I had posted a question on FreeBSD-Questions about how to format these sgml-ized docs. I saw the dtd stuff in /usr/share/sgml, but I guess I need to things: 1) The mechanics of turning the sgml source code into various other things, like ascii and postscript. 2) Adescription of the formatting rules for the most important tags. This stuff in itself oughta go into an FAQ, I'd think, if you really want help. I am most definitely not any kind of FreeBSD content export, but I write well, and I hope after I learn how this works, to volunteer here. ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include any kind of voice or data chuckr@eng.umd.edu | communications topic, C programming, and Unix. 9120 Edmonston Ct #302 | Greenbelt, MD 20770 | I run Journey2 and n3lxx, both FreeBSD (301) 220-2114 | version 2.2 current -- and great FUN! ----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
