Did you mean to say “absolute paths”? If not, then you’re arguing against yourself here. Relative links within the docs *are* what allow the docs to work when hosted off cygwin.com, as in my info(1) example. Otherwise, a link that should be an internal cross-reference turns into an external web page link. Also keep in mind that DocBook has *four* different styles of links: , , , and . They mean different things, and give different effects. Depending on the stylesheets you use, they can even change behavior between different output types. http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/CrossRefs.html http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/Ulinks.html http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/Olinking.html -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
