- Subject: DOCBOOK: First attempt to make a driver file
Yo. I'm a newbie at all this DocBook/Jade/SGML/DSSSL stuff. I'm
trying to make a driver file that will allow me to override some
things I don't like in the .dsl files, but whenever I use my new
driver file, jade spits a text only version to the screen instead of
creating my HTML file.
I type:
D:\> jade -t sgml -d
D:\ProgramFiles\Jade\DocBook\dsssl\html\docbook.dsl test.sgm
And it generates an HTML file.
Now I try it again with the following driver file I saved as
test.dsl:
<!DOCTYPE style-sheet PUBLIC "-//James Clark//DTD DSSSL Style
Sheet//EN" [
<!ENTITY MyDocBook SYSTEM
"D:\ProgramFiles\Jade\DocBook\dsssl\html\docbook.dsl" CDATA DSSSL> ]>
<style-sheet>
<style-specification>
<style-specification-body>
<!-- will put in style overrides here if I can get it to work -->
</style-specification-body>
</style-specification>
<external-specification id="MyDocBookID" document="MyDocBook">
</style-sheet>
And I type:
D:\> jade -t sgml -d test.dsl test.sgm
And this time I get just console output. What the heck? If I'm
reading this correctly, my essentially empty driver file should just
tell jade to read in docbook.dsl, but yet it does something different
than if I specify docbook.dsl.
What am I missing? How do I fix this?
