- Subject: DOCBOOK-APPS: sgml2x 0.99.1 released
I'm pleased to announce the release of sgml2x 0.99.1. This is a beta
version, and the first official release to the world. Probably only
bugfixes will be integrated until 1.0 comes out.
It requires jade and jadetex to work, and you'll need docbook (sgml or
xml), and docbook-dsssl to make immediate use of it. It was
developped as a bash script, and should run on any platform where bash
runs.
You can get it at:

Here is a small excerpt from the manpage:
DESCRIPTION
sgml2x allows to easily format a SGML or XML document
using DSSSL stylesheets, and provides the following fea
tures:
· Multiple possible stylesheets per document class
· Easy specification of stylesheets using aliases
· Easy integration of new stylesheets by adding a sim
ple new definition file in a configuration directory
· The caller can specify a PATH-like list of configu
ration directories, defaulting to a system-wide, a
per-user, and a per-project configuration directo
ries
· Automatic selection of a default stylesheet to be
used, based on assigned priorities
· Pass arbitrary options to jade(1)
The document-class used to look for the stylesheets, and
the output format, is for now only derived from from the
name with which the program is called, so you will want to
call this program through symbolic links like docbook2pdf.
