| shaunm | elz89: yelp is the help application on your desktop | 00:07 |
|---|---|---|
| shaunm | it's able to natively read docbook, mallard, and some other formats. it does this by converting thos formats to html on the fly and displaying the result | 00:08 |
| shaunm | for docbook, yelp uses a set of xslt transforms from the yelp-xsl package, rather than the transforms from docbook-xsl | 00:08 |
| shaunm | they are a completely separate set of transforms | 00:09 |
| shaunm | different implementations with different goals, different techniques, different strengths | 00:09 |
| shaunm | docbook-xsl is generally the standard package for most people creating html from docbook | 00:10 |
| shaunm | but some people prefer to use yelp-xsl, particularly when they're writing documents that will likely be viewed in yelp anyway | 00:10 |
| shaunm | if you're editing an existing document whose Makefiles are already set up to use docbook-xsl, then I'd say to not worry about it and keep creating the html with make | 00:12 |
| elz89 | I'm editing the xml docbook files on Lubuntu, can anyone recommend a editor as an alternative to Leafpad, that will highlight the syntax? | 17:34 |

| MrChrisDruif | Ahh, yes. Gedit should do it | 18:46 |
| MrChrisDruif | I don't know if mousepad has syntax highlighting... | 18:46 |
