I wrote a user's manual using SGML and the DocBook DTD for work.
Now they want me to do a Spanish translation.
First I changed my <book> tag to <book lang="es">. I got all
sorts of error messages like:
====================================================================
l.430 \select@language{spanish}
! Package babel Error: You haven't defined the language spanish yet.
See the babel package documentation for explanation. Type H <return> for
immediate help.
...
====================================================================
I followed some suggestions on a Debian mailing-list from last
September. (I'm using the Linux tool-chain.) I ran 'texconfig' and
uncommented spanish in the Hypenation section. I also added spanish to
my jadetex.dtx file so that it reads
"\RequirePackage[spanish,german,english]{babel}[1997/01/23]" now.
It doesn't work. Help! What else do I need to do?
