BugsSite/docs/README.docs - third_party/webkit - Git at Google

 Welcome to the Bugzilla documentation project!
 You'll find these directories and files here:

 README.docs	# This README file
 html/		# The compiled HTML docs from XML sources (do not edit)
 txt/		# The compiled text docs from XML sources (do not edit)
 xml/		# The original XML doc sources (edit these)

 A note about the XML:
   The documentation is written in DocBook 4.1.2, and attempts to adhere
 to the LinuxDoc standards where applicable (http://www.tldp.org).
 Please consult "The LDP Author Guide" at tldp.org for details on how
 to set up your personal environment for compiling XML files.
   If you need to make corrections to typographical errors, or other minor
 editing duties, feel free to use any text editor to make the changes.  XML
 is not rocket science -- simply make sure your text appears between
 appropriate tags (like <para>This is a paragraph</para>) and we'll be fine.
 If you are making more extensive changes, please ensure you at least validate
 your XML before checking it in with something like:
 	nsgmls -s $JADE_PUB/xml.dcl Bugzilla-Guide.xml

   When you validate, please validate the master document (Bugzilla-Guide.xml)
 as well as the document you edited to ensure there are no critical errors.
 The following errors are considered "normal" when validating with nsgmls:

  DTDDECL catalog entries are not supported
  "DOCTYPE" declaration not allowed in instance

   The reason these occur is that free sgml/xml validators do not yet support
 the DTDDECL catalog entries, and I've included DOCTYPE declarations in
 entities referenced from Bugzilla-Guide.xml so these entities can compile
 individually, if necessary.  I suppose I ought to comment them out at some
 point, but for now they are convenient and don't hurt anything.

   Thanks for taking the time to read these notes and consulting the
 documentation.  Please address comments and questions to the newsgroup:

 ==========
 HOW TO SET UP YOUR OWN XML EDITING ENVIRONMENT:
 ==========

 Trying to set up an XML Docbook editing environment the
 first time can be a daunting task.
 I use Linux-Mandrake, in part, because it has a fully-functional
 XML Docbook editing environment included as part of the
 distribution CD's.  If you have easier instructions for how to
 do this for a particular Linux distribution or platform, please
 let the team know at the mailing list: mozilla-webtools@mozilla.org.

 The following text is taken nearly verbatim from
 http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=95970, where I gave
 these instructions to someone who wanted the greater manageability
 maintaining a document in Docbook brings:

 This is just off the top of my head, but here goes.  Note some of these may
 NOT be necessary, but I don't think they hurt anything by being installed.

 rpms:

 openjade
 jadetex
 docbook-dtds
 docbook-style-dsssl
 docbook-style-dsssl-doc
 docbook-utils
 xemacs
 psgml
 sgml-tools
 sgml-common


 If you're getting these from RedHat, make sure you get the ones in the
 rawhide area.  The ones in the 7.2 distribution are too old and don't
 include the XML stuff.  The packages distrubuted with RedHat 8.0 and 9
 and known to work.

 Download "ldp.dsl" from the Resources page on tldp.org.  This is the
 stylesheet I use to get the HTML and text output.  It works well, and has a
 nice, consistent look with the rest of the linuxdoc documents.  You'll have to
 adjust the paths in ldp.dsl at the top of the file to reflect the actual
 locations of your docbook catalog files.  I created a directory,
 /usr/share/sgml/docbook/ldp, and put the ldp.dsl file there.  I then edited
 ldp.dsl and changed two lines near the top:
 <!ENTITY docbook.dsl SYSTEM "../dsssl-stylesheets/html/docbook.dsl" CDATA
 dsssl>
 ...and...
 <!ENTITY docbook.dsl SYSTEM "../dsssl-stylesheets/print/docbook.dsl" CDATA
 dsssl>

 Note the difference is the top one points to the HTML docbook stylesheet,
 and the next one points to the PRINT docbook stylesheet.

 Also note that modifying ldp.dsl doesn't seem to be needed on RedHat 9.

   You know, this sure looks awful involved.  Anyway, once you have this in
 place, add to your .bashrc:
 export SGML_CATALOG_FILES=/etc/sgml/catalog
 export LDP_HOME=/usr/share/sgml/docbook/ldp
 export JADE_PUB=/usr/share/doc/openjade-1.3.1/pubtext

 or in .tcshrc:
 setenv SGML_CATALOG_FILES /etc/sgml/catalog
 setenv LDP_HOME /usr/share/sgml/docbook/ldp
 setenv JADE_PUB /usr/share/doc/openjade-1.3.1/pubtext

   If you have root access and want to set this up for anyone on your box,
 you can add those lines to /etc/profile for bash users and /etc/csh.login
 for tcsh users.

   Make sure you edit the paths in the above environment variables if those
 folders are anywhere else on your system (for example, the openjade version
 might change if you get a new version at some point).

   I suggest xemacs for editing your XML Docbook documents.  The darn
 thing just works, and generally includes PSGML mode by default.  Not to
 mention you can validate the SGML from right within it without having to
 remember the command-line syntax for nsgml (not that it's that hard
 anyway).  If not, you can download psgml at
 http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/psgml.

   Another good editor is the latest releases of vim and gvim.  Vim will
 recognize DocBook tags and give them a different color than unreconized tags.

 NOTES:
 ==========

   Here are the commands I use to maintain this documentation.
   You MUST have DocBook 4.1.2 set up correctly in order for this to work.

   These commands can be run all at once using the ./makedocs.pl script.

 To create HTML documentation:
 bash$ cd html
 bash$ jade -t sgml -i html -d $LDP_HOME/ldp.dsl\#html \
 $JADE_PUB/xml.dcl ../xml/Bugzilla-Guide.xml

 To create HTML documentation as a single big HTML file:
 bash$ cd html
 bash$ jade -V nochunks -t sgml -i html -d $LDP_HOME/ldp.dsl\#html \
 $JADE_PUB/xml.dcl ../xml/Bugzilla-Guide.xml >Bugzilla-Guide.html

 To create TXT documentation as a single big TXT file:
 bash$ cd txt
 bash$ lynx -dump -nolist ../html/Bugzilla-Guide.html >Bugzilla-Guide.txt
