&gt; Subject: Outputting DocBook to text?
&gt;
&gt; ldp-docbook,
&gt;
&gt; Okay, I've got a really stupid question here... given a valid
&gt; DocBook file, how can you create a plain, old, vanilla text
&gt; file?
&gt;
&gt; I've used jade (well, actually the new &quot;openjade&quot;) to create
&gt; output files that are in HTML, MIF, RTF and TeX. I've also
&gt; used the &quot;db2html&quot; and other commands to go to HTML, PDF and
&gt; PostScript.
&gt;
&gt; But I seem to be missing something, here... how do you just
&gt; get a plain ASCII text file like the HOWTO files distributed
&gt; with most distributions?
Uhm, that would be a &quot;feature&quot;, I think. :-) Right now, I think we're
still using lynx -dump single-file-html-HOWTO.sgml, although there is
another program called HTML2Text that might be better. If you need a copy
of html2text (or html2txt, according to SuSE), grab a src.rpm from
rpmfind.net, and extract it from there. HTH,
Grego
