[04:00] glick, find a Mac and choose File > Print > Preview? :-) === mpt hunts for something better [04:02] this is one long book [04:02] the java virtual machine specification [04:02] it consists of several cross referenced files and stuff [04:04] glick: you could, html2ps then ps2pdf [04:04] that might work [04:04] mgalvin, does that cover multiple html files? [04:05] ahh, multiple files [04:05] probably not [04:05] igs a book across multiple files [04:05] meaning will it determine what pages are linked and follow the links? [04:05] prob not [04:06] but its worth trying [04:06] mgalvin, I think just concatenating the files into one PDF would do [04:06] http://java.sun.com/docs/books/vmspec/ [04:06] thats the book [04:06] mpt: good point [04:06] that may work [04:15] awesome [04:16] htmldoc is available under the GPL [04:16] if you want a binary, that costs you $49.95 [04:17] "Free binaries may be available elsewhere - search Google to find them." [04:17] ha [04:18] glick, install the htmldoc package from Universe [04:19] that should do what you want [04:20] hehe [04:20] thanks [04:28] sweet, i gotta keep that one handy too :) [04:28] good find [04:33] nice!

[03:26] bhuvan: those are open meta framework files needed by scrollkeeper [03:26] it enables the doc to be available in yelp [03:27] but, only very few documents uses .omf. any specific reason ? === jjesse [n=jjesse@mail.ftpb.com] has joined #ubuntu-doc [03:30] bhuvan: its useful if you want to see your document in Yelp or Khelpcenter for example [03:31] there's a better explanation in the help page of creating scrollkeeper files in yelp [03:32] ok, i'll check, thankx [03:32] morning [03:42] Oh, deos khelpcentre also do .omf? [03:43] jbailey: sure its also scrollkeeper aware anyways [03:43] Cool. === Ophiocus [n=Ubuntusb@200.109.83.211] has joined #ubuntu-doc [03:47] hi there just to let you know 1) ubuntu started guide is awesome and 2) theres a typo for the link on step six in http://help.ubuntu.com/starterguide/C/faqguide-all.html#sect-dhcp-server [03:48] hmmm [03:49] can you file a bug on that?

[03:54] i'm about to sleep early sure i have a minute or two for you :) [03:54] ok, i pm you [03:59] done === mpt [n=mpt@66.103.220.192] has joined #ubuntu-doc [06:10] good night [07:35] where is everyone!?

[07:45] if you have a cold, you should take it easy, but also get some fresh air. [07:45] if you stay in bed, you basically end up lying in a pool of your own germs. [07:46] I'm huddled with tea in front of the computer right now, that's a step above being in bed, I guess :) [07:46] going to go out for a walk later, unless it starts raining again === judax [n=judax@adsl-69-150-57-172.dsl.austtx.swbell.net] has joined #ubuntu-doc [07:53] greetings [07:53] Madpilot: any idea where your brother is?

[09:57] i just got some replies from him [09:57] the new wiki? [09:57] yeah [09:58] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=81666 [09:58] start at post 25 on that thread [09:58] Bahamut - that name came up w/ one of the folks a few months ago who was moving huge chunks of the existing wiki around without talking to anyone, too... [09:59] yes [10:00] a woman just said "open sores" on oprah. i almost got excited and thought she said "open source. [10:01] King Bahamut is fond of his hyperbole, isn't he? [10:02] ... and I see that Steve Myer is mentioned, too... [10:03] ok, I have a new nick now.. [10:04] that caret couldn't be used in a hostmask [10:04] highvoltage, lol [10:04] ok, off to work now.. [10:04] bye rob1 [10:04] Madpilot, yes, it looks like we're fighting a losing battle there [10:04] wow what a crazy thread on that wiki [10:05] eh another duplicate resource.. [10:05] it's insane, really... if Myers had just dropped a note to the list and talked about what he was planning, it would have worked out.... bleh... [10:09] correct [10:09] in fact I emailed him privately [10:09] and got no response [10:10] and several people left notes on his wiki user page or on some of the other pages he created, too [10:10] yes [10:10] I left one [10:10] both that and my email were extremely conciliatory [10:11] perhaps we can catch him on #ubuntu-gwos === mdke tries [10:12] with all of 4 people there... [10:13] i pinged im [10:19] ok [10:19] forget it [10:19] his last post was simply rude [10:23] very strange... [10:23] yeah [10:23] well these things happen [10:24] i just thought I'd try and build some bridges ;) [10:24] since I've failed, I'm not gonna lose any sleep over it [10:24] odd chap that [10:25] I've encountered ppl like that elsewhere on the web - they won't play in anyone else's sandbox, they've got to have total control, and sulk when they don't have it... [10:25] the name-calling hyperbole fits right in to the same mold... [10:26] well for someone who writes documentation, he has a strange way of writing :D [10:53] Madpilot: we have someone who is like that on the doc team :) [10:53] hmm? [10:56] nah, he's not so bad [10:56] :) [10:57] Corey can be a bit like that, but he's growing out of it... and I'm allowed to say that, because he's my younger brother :P === LaserJock [n=LaserJoc@lambda.chem.unr.edu] has joined #ubuntu-doc [10:59] he didn't mean corey [10:59] Madpilot: Older-brother's perogative eh :-) [10:59] Kinnison: absolutely :) === Kinnison grins === Kinnison 's younger brother is unfortunately taller and faster than he is [11:00] heh [11:00] Much to his frustration, Corey remains an inch or so shorter than I am [11:00] what age gap? [11:00] 4 years [11:01] ahh === Belutz [n=Belutz@ubuntu/member/belutz] has joined #ubuntu-doc
