Hello,
I am relatively new to DocBook, and so far so good.
I would like to include references to external documents...Here is how I
would like it to work:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
doc1.sgm
&doc2.sgm; <!-- to include the repository
<book> ...
<chapter id=ch1> ...
<refdoc doc=doc1>
<refdoc doc=doc2> <!-- to include a reference to the doc, ie doc2
</chapter>
<appendix>
<refdoc_locations doc=doc1><refdoc doc=doc1><doc_description id=doc1>
<refdoc_locations doc=doc2><refdoc doc=doc2><doc_description id=doc2>
<!-- to list the chapter number where the ref
to the doc is listed, followed by the reference,
and its description.
</appendix>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
doc2.sgm
<doc_repository>
<doc id=doc1><description>foo</description></doc>
<doc id=doc2><description>bar</description></doc>
</doc_repository>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I have been looking at DSSSL stuff, but its out of my league. I can
produce the DTD and DSSSL for the doc_repository, I have looked at the
bib from Mathias Clasen (thanks), but I can't incorporate that in the
DocBook framework.
I would be very grateful for anyone to provide some direction/guidance.
Thanks,
Matthieu
