| The script xmlproc.sh takes an xml file as input, |
| and processes it to create .pdf, .html or .ps output. |
| It uses format.pl, a perl script to format <pre> blocks nicely, |
| and add CDATA tags so writers do not have to use eg. < |
| |
| The file "entities.xml" must be edited to reflect current |
| version, year, etc. |
| |
| |
| Usage: |
| |
| xmlproc.sh -v manual.xml |
| Validates an xml file to ensure no dtd-compliance errors |
| |
| xmlproc.sh -html manual.xml |
| Output: manual.html |
| |
| xmlproc.sh -pdf manual.xml |
| Output: manual.pdf |
| |
| xmlproc.sh -ps manual.xml |
| Output: manual.ps |

| Notum bene: |
| - pdfxmltex barfs if given a filename with an underscore in it |
| |
| - xmltex won't work yet - there's a bug in passivetex |
| which we are all waiting for Sebastian to fix. |
| So we are going the xml -> pdf -> ps route for the time being, |
| using pdfxmltex. |
