My doc covers both file path references and catalog references.
For those just getting started, it is simpler to point to a
real file on their local system. After they get that working,
I have a whole chapter on XML catalogs.
Having been there and suffered Bob, perhaps a mention of the symptoms of
the processor going to the web (succeeding or failing), and how/where it
can be fixed?
It shouldn't take long to persuade readers that a catalog is a good idea :-)
I found it infuriating at first, especially when, having done it and got it all
working, Norm produces a new version and I have to do it all again!
For a full XML docbook, how many places need changing to get it
to work? And the assumption then is that its installed such that
relative pathnames work.
~All points I've tripped over in the past.
(which is another reason I'm happy to see your work :-)
