Hi Rob, I have gathered from irc conversations the you have picked up on your interest of converting our documentation to reStructuredText. As I'm unfortunately not able to spend much time on irc while you are there, I will add some comments on this mailing list thread. From the little

Hi, I have started to create https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Documentation_Requirements because I think, the bug report together with mails on several lists are becoming muddled. In a first step we should collect required and desired criterias. In a secound step we should see which source

https://github.com/codesmythe/gnucash-docs-rst/blob/master/source/Host%20this%20Locally.md explains local hosting in Windows. I suppose it is similar in Linux with serve.bat becoming serve.sh - the run command is a single line if the libraries are loaded. The local stylesheet is the same now.

Rob that's a nice result. Remarkable given you've nearly converted the lot with scripts. A heads up would have been nice given I put a MkDocs version I put up two days ago at "We should change the Documentation file format" - https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=722016#c13 There's not much
