The format of choice is SGML using the linuxdoc DTD (well, "of choice" may not be appropriate, but that is another story...). If you are not at all familiar with SGML or linuxdoc, you can: A: Grab some files from /usr/src/share/doc/handbook and use them as an example. B: Write the document using plain ascii. C: Write the document using LaTeX. (the reason for option C is that the linuxdoc DTD is basically latex with <tags> instead of \controlsequences.) -john == jfieber@indiana.edu =========================================== == http://fieber-john.campusview.indiana.edu/~jfieber ============
