Hi, My company is using docbook for end user documentation and to some degree also for design documentation. Since docbook is nothing anyone seems to be fond of writing, I now started looking into quickbook. The features that attract me the most are the neat syntax and programmability. The docbook environment that I am supposed to use is based on a different docbook version, than the one referenced in boostbook. So at the moment I have an xml file containing the book and booinfo header containing our corporate design foobar and disclaimer stuff. Then each chapter is referenced. The chapters are written in quickbook as chapter documents. When running the toolchain, it complains that it could not find the boostbook dtd - probably because downloading of dtd is disable, or fails because of our proxy. Is there a way to surpress the DOCTYPE tag within the chapter xml output files?
No, but it'd be easy to implement. Maybe a command line option:
quickbook --doctype none quickbook --doctype docbook quickbook --doctype boostbook
If you like that idea, can you submit a ticket to trac so that I don't forget? A future version might even warn if you use boostbook features in a docbook document.
I have tried this.. But it's likely possible to tell xsltproc to repoint the boostbook dtd to some other dtd. Hence you could repoint it to a local version of the dtd, or to an empty local one. -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org (msn) - grafik/redshift-software.com -- 102708583/icq - grafikrobot/aim,yahoo,skype,efnet,gmail
