Technically it would be possible to run Quickbook with an appropriate template that generates source code directly skipping the need to use XML. But this is closer to what Joel mentions than what Dave is suggesting. The point being that both options are possible, and we likely want to have both to allow for a range of lightweight to complex process. > Rene is working on the standard template stuff for qbk.

It's getting there, going through all the output actions and turning them into templates, and testing them is slow work :-( Although the code that's currently checked in has a good portion implemented (as of yesterday). I'd say 60% of the output in regular looking docs is template driven now. I have the hard step of restructuring how lists are processed next. -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com -- 102708583/icq - grafikrobot/aim - grafikrobot/yahoo ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
