The discussion on <ulink

|
url="http://lists.tldp.org/index.cgi?1:mss:4310:200304:claiepedajakajhoajgg">One-page
|
|
replacement for LDP-Author-Guide</ulink> took an interesting turn when
|
|
Tabatha sent in <ulink
|
|
url="http://lists.tldp.org/index.cgi?1:mss:4346:200305:pjodbfhkoeponcdaajjl">her
|
|
views</ulink> regarding an online editor for LinuxDoc/DockBook.
|
|
Her requirements include prompting user for tags and
|
|
validating/processing the document at the backend. She also indicated
|
|
that someone was working on a PHP based tool for the same and that the
|
|
the <quote>form</quote> idea, where a user could enter the relevant
|
|
document information and then proceed to fill in the blanks until the
|
|
document is complete is the secret of success. Greg Ferguson, however
|
|
felt that it would be clunky and <ulink
|
|
url="http://lists.tldp.org/index.cgi?1:mss:4354:200305:loceblldbelajghaloeg">said
|
|
that he was not sure</ulink> how tables, code examples, graphics would
|
|
be handled and preferred the *easy* way of using a Sample-HOWTO.xml with
|
|
good old reliable <command>vi</command>.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Several people went on to discuss an alternative interface
|
|
and tools that might solve the problem of editing in LinuxDoc/DockBook.

Several services of The LDP were <ulink url="http://lists.tldp.org/index.cgi?1:mss:4381:200305:fojaagooonmldaebjmei">affected</ulink> because of hard drive
|
