Yes, I believe if you just select "xmlto" in setup.exe it pulls in all the necessary files except the FAQ source and XSL customizations, which will be in CVS. Plus, as I mentioned earlier the User's Guide is already DocBook (has been from the start) so it's not like this is a totally new format. In fact it's easier to use than the current FAQ, see below. > Incidentally, tetex-3.0.0 seems to be missing the texi2html executable (it > was present in tetex-2.0.2). Jan, any comments? It's even worse than that. The htdocs/faq/update script that creates the FAQ relies on the specific output format of texi2html 1.56k. I don't remember exactly what newer versions do differently but they don't work. We could easily put 1.56k in CVS--I would actually probably put it in htdocs/faq/ to get everything in one place, after all there's already an "update" script there. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
