    1: Handling the rsync SGML documentation
    2: 
    3: rsync documentation is now primarily in Docbook format.  Docbook is an
    4: SGML/XML documentation format that is becoming standard on free
    5: operating systems.  It's also used for Samba documentation.
    6: 
    7: The SGML files are source code that can be translated into various
    8: useful output formats, primarily PDF, HTML, Postscript and plain text.  
    9: 
   10: To do this transformation on Debian, you should install the
   11: docbook-utils package.  Having done that, you can say 
   12: 
   13:   docbook2pdf rsync.sgml
   14: 
   15: and so on.
   16: 
   17: On other systems you probably need James Clark's "sp" and "JadeTeX"
   18: packages.  Work it out for yourself and send a note to the mailing
   19: list.
