[Nobug] Docu updated

[benny.lyons at uniserv.com]

Evening all, 
I've carried out primarily minor modifications to the documention.  
I'm just after pushing these changes up to devel:/refs/heads/benny
for anyone wishing to have a look (pulled from devel).  I think 
the changes are so slight they can simply be merged into master or 
devel without serious loss of sleep during the night. I've more or 
less proof read and corrected up to the section on Macros on p 27
of the pdf.  I still have to run through the new stuff ... updates 
later on in the week.

I was glancing through the pdf, looks really nice, although still
a little bit to do.  Are the style sheets already in devel, i.e., 
if I make doc, will I get the new format?  I've got an old Etch 
I can use, is the Latex installation ok to use there?


Benny

Subject: [Nobug] NoBug reference manual PDF generation

Andreas send me a (unfinished) patch for latex generation which I merged
now, included now. A first rough result:
 http://lumiera.org/nobug_manual.pdf

Thanks to Andreas for his initial work..

Quite much to do but looks already a lot better than the dblatex
generated stuff I had first. Note that I am doing this under
debian/queeze now, the toolchain under debian/lenny led to more
problems.

Andreas told me that asciidoc deprecated an old table syntax in favor
for a new syntax. We agreed that we follow this and update all tables to
use the new syntax. Then the Latex macros for tables need only to be
implemented for this new table styles.

I pushed current work to the 'devel' branch and focusing on fixing
things there. The PDF above will be updated continously as far I make
some progress. Anyone who wants to help, please merge and work on base
of my 'devel' branch and push things to the mob repository or ask me for
an account for your own repository on the server.

Note to the Lumierans, I'm going to make this PDF generation for NoBug
also the base style for uWiki and the Lumiera documentation later.

	Christian
