If you take a look at the html output, you will see that all tags have a |
16 |
name or class element. |
17 |
So using a local stylesheet should be ok for the beginning. |

BTW: There is a new package app-text/docbook2X which can be used to |
20 |
convert docbook to man and info |
21 |
pages. It uses alot of perl XML modules and internaly uses XML::DOM and |
22 |
not XML::Sablotron or XML::LibXSLT |
23 |
|
24 |
Maybe we can extend this package to amke use of the newer parsers and |
25 |
add html and fo output (maybe pdf too) |
26 |
to it. |
27 |
Then we would have a nice frontend docs. |
