Where is should begin? Start by trying to duplicate the doc/ tree locally, and adding a proper subdirectory with translations in your local encoding. For example, when I wanted to start a Greek translation, my main aim was to get a minimal /doc/el_GR.ISO8859-7 subdirectory working, and then go on adding and tweaking documents under it. What you want to read is: a) The source of the Makefiles under doc/share/mk, doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/share/mk, and the local Makefiles that every subdirectory of doc/en_US.ISO8859-1 has. Use a local doc/ copy [ which you can even update with CVSup using as an example the supfile found at /usr/share/examples/cvsup/doc-supfile ] or... browse the doc/ sources on the web at: http://cvsweb.FreeBSD.org/doc/ b) The FDP primer for New Contributors. This should provide a lot of help when you want to start working with HTML or SGML documents. Find it at http://www.FreeBSD.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/fdp-primer formatted as HTML output, or read the SGML sources and the Makefiles at http://cvsweb.FreeBSD.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/fdp-primer That's probably a lot of reading, but you can always ask questions related to the way the documentation is written, or converted to many formats by sending mail to <doc@FreeBSD.org>. But I guess you know that already. Oh, and ... Thanks for volunteering to start a new translation :-) - Giorgos --qcHopEYAB45HaUaB Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE9f40A1g+UGjGGA7YRAlDDAJ420IyGsHzKPC2LkO4bdaa77yucywCfY4NU 9JbT27i+QL84UeqhVTD92ck= =1dGH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --qcHopEYAB45HaUaB-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
