Re: DOCBOOK-APPS: long strings

[Camille Bégnis <camille at mandrakesoft dot com>]

Hi Tim,

Three solutions:

1) The quick and dirty: Add a space/newline where you want the line to
be cutted

2) The tedious and clean: put the long string into another tag like
<parameter> and make sure it is processed with the \url TeX command and
package.

3) The tricky: reduce the font size for <userinput> ;-)
