I know there is fop but it requires java.

Java and FOP are IMHO simpler to understand than TeX and PassiveTex.
On FreeBSD you may want to build the JDK with the port java/jdk14. FOP
is also available in a port IIRC and installs in
$(PREFIX)/share/java/classes, so you have to declare the entries there
in the CLASSPATH environment variable to use FOP on the command line
with something like "java org.apache.fop.apps.Fop".

Sure but it requires Linux binaries to build. I plan to switch as soon as possible from an x86 platform to a powerpc one and i am not sure to be able to build jdk on it.

As far as I know, FreeBSD is not running on powerpc. What OS will you be running? Linux works well on powerpc and there is a JDK available AFAIK. If you intend to run NetBSD, you are avoiding Java intentionally :-)


Do you hate *that* much Java?
