DOC++ v3.01 -- OS/2 port release 0.1 6. AUG 1997
=====================================================================
GENERAL:
--------
This is my OS/2 port of DOC++ 3.01. I have used the famous GNU-C
emx 0.9c (fix03). If you have some problems with the OS/2 port,
just drop me a line. I can be reached by eMail. See the end of
the file!
At this time, I would like to thanks Eberhard Mattes for his EMX
compiler and Roland Wunderling / Malte Zöckler for DOC++!
DOC++ is (c) Copyright by Malte Zöckler and Roland Wunderling.
The original sources are located at
http://www.zib.de/Visual/software/doc++/index.html
The home of the OS/2 port is:

Here you can find the links to the current release.
INSTALLATION:
-------------
This is really simple. Just copy the EXE to a directory in the PATH.
Copy the DOCXX.STY somewhere in the texinput directory tree. I'm
using \emtex\texinput\jd\!
THE PORT:
---------
The port of DOC++ was really easy. ;-)
To compile with emx, I have changed the following files:
DOC.H MCDIRECTORY.H MAKEFILE
I use a #elif __EMX__ construction to separate the patches. I've
stripped the makefile to an absolute minimum. Sorry ;)
EXTENSIONS:
-----------
The extensions are only active, if you are using the LaTeX tags
inside the DOC++ comments. If you prefer the HTML tags, you have
to use ä instead of "a or ä. One more 'sorry' ;)
DOC++ supports the LaTeX notation for the germam 'Umlaute'. Writing
\"a instead of ä is really awkward. So I added the shortcuts of the
package 'german.sty'. Now you can use "a or "s and DOC++ will
produce correct (HTML) output.
Nevertheless, I want to have direct support of the codepage 850.
The current release of the port have a new commandline parameter
to enable the PC character set. With -P DOC++ will convert the
german 'Umlaute' for the HTML output. For LaTeX-Output, this
option add the line '\usepackage[cp850]{inputenc}'.
So, to get a german LaTeX document, commandline should look like
this: "docxx -t -P -ep german.sty ...."
SUM UP: DOC++ could convert the following LaTeX tags to HTML
\"s "a "o "u "A "O "U "s ä ö ü Ä Ö Ü ß
I've extended the following files:
DOC2HTML.L DOC2TEX.L, TEX2GIF.CPP and MAIN.CPP
SOME NOTES:
-----------
The modification are tested under OS/2 Warp-4. There's no reason
why the modifications shouldn't run on the remaining DOC++ platforms.
Just try it. ;)
EmTeX have some problems with DOCXX.STY. You can ignore the messages.
The output is correct. I'm no TEX guru, so I have no idea, how to
fix this. Roland Wunderling told me, that some LaTeX ports have
problems this control characters inside TEX commands.
Don't ask me. ;)
Good Luck...
