%general-entities; ]> $LastChangedBy$ $Date$ The DocBook-utils package is a collection of utility scripts used to convert and analyze SGML documents in general, and DocBook files in particular. The scripts are used to convert from DocBook or other SGML formats into classical file formats like HTML, man, info, RTF and many more. There's also a utility to compare two SGML files and only display the differences in markup. This is useful for comparing documents prepared for different languages. Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download size: &docbook-utils-size; Estimated Disk space required: &docbook-utils-buildsize; Estimated build time: &docbook-utils-time; , and (for conversion to DVI, PS and PDF), : SGMLSpm-&SGMLSpm-version; (for conversion to man and texinfo), and or or (for conversion to ASCII text) Install DocBook-utils by running the following commands: sed -i.orig -e "/CATALOG \/etc\/sgml\/OpenSP-1.5.1.cat/d" \ /etc/sgml/catalog && sed -i.orig -e "/CATALOG \/etc\/sgml\/OpenSP-1.5.1.cat/d" \ /etc/sgml/sgml-docbook.cat && ./configure --prefix=/usr && make && make install && cp /etc/sgml/catalog.orig /etc/sgml/catalog && cp /etc/sgml/sgml-docbook.cat.orig /etc/sgml/sgml-docbook.cat sed -i.orig -e ...: These two sed's remove OpenSP catalog definitions from the SGML catalogs because the SGMLDECL unicode.sd declaration creates errors when openjade builds the DocBook-utils documentation files. Backup copies of the files are made and copied back to their original place after the build is complete. Though these errors are harmless, and won't affect DocBook-utils functionality after the build, the declarations are temporarily removed to provide a clean package build. The DocBook-utils package contains docbook2dvi, docbook2html, docbook2man, docbook2pdf, docbook2ps, docbook2rtf, docbook2tex, docbook2texi, docbook2txt, jw and sgmldiff. The docbook2{format} scripts are simple one-line wrappers to jw. They are provided as easy-to-remember names used to convert DocBook or other SGML files to the respective format. jw is a script used to convert DocBook or other SGML files to various output formats. It hides most of OpenJade's complexity and adds comfortable features. sgmldiff is used to compare two SGML files and only return the differences in the markup. This is especially useful to compare files that should be identical except for language differences in the content.
