[00:07] <shaunm> elz89: yelp is the help application on your desktop
[00:08] <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
[00:09] <shaunm> they are a completely separate set of transforms
[00:09] <shaunm> different implementations with different goals, different techniques, different strengths
[00:10] <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
[00:12] <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
[17:34] <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?
[18:36] <jbicha> elz89: how about gedit?
[18:40] <MrChrisDruif> jbicha; for what? (instead of?)
[18:42] <jbicha> instead of leafpad
[18:43] <MrChrisDruif> In what environment?

[18:46] <MrChrisDruif> Ahh, yes. Gedit should do it
[18:46] <MrChrisDruif> I don't know if mousepad has syntax highlighting...
[19:11] <elz89> jbicha: MrChrisDruif: thanks, I'll use gedit.
[19:11] <MrChrisDruif> Your welcome
