- docbook-xml -- DocBook XML
- ----------------------------------------------------------
-
- DocBook is pretty much the standard for software documentation. It is
- managed by a committee formed at OASIS, the Organization for the
- Advancement of Structured Information Standards
- <URL:http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/>. More information on
- DocBook, including the user support community for it, can be found at
- <URL:http://www.docbook.org/>.
-
- This package contains the XML versions of the DTDs. The 'docbook'
- package contains the SGML DTDs. A number of customization packages
- are also available, generally used to mark up specialized subsets or
- special applications of DocBook XML. Rather than list them here,
- please do 'apt-cache search docbook-xml'.
-
- If you wish to format DocBook documents, you'll want to apply a
- stylesheet to the document, in conjunction with a processor which
- applies the style. The available stylesheets for DocBook are the
- 'docbook-dsssl' and 'docbook-xsl' packages, for DSSSL and XSL
- stylesheets, respectively. Instructions on operating those
- stylesheets and DSSSL or XSL processors is beyond the scope of this
- README, but there is a Debian SGML/XML HOWTO at
- <URL:http://www.debian.org/doc/misc-manuals#sgml-howto> which should
- give some guidance.
