I've updated the docs on the web and added the tool I used to do it in the findutils source tree. The patch (which I already pushed) is attached. Improvements welcome!
From 755a22b9820d554d1dd8b82fd3c3ad1d3d688c81 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: James Youngman <j...@gnu.org> Date: Sun, 5 May 2019 16:49:12 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] doc: add a tool for updating the online manual. To: findutils-patc...@gnu.org
* build-aux/update-online-manual.sh: add a script (originally written in 2005 but not previously included in the source distribution) which automates the updating of the online manual. * doc/Makefile.am: Add some targets useful for update-online-manual.sh. * doc/find-maint.texi (Documentation): Explain how to check out the web pages and how to update the findutils documentation there. --- build-aux/update-online-manual.sh | 243 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ doc/Makefile.am | 25 +++- doc/find-maint.texi | 13 ++ 3 files changed, 279 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) create mode 100755 build-aux/update-online-manual.sh diff --git a/build-aux/update-online-manual.sh b/build-aux/update-online-manual.sh new file mode 100755 index 00000000..bfce0465 --- /dev/null +++ b/build-aux/update-online-manual.sh @@ -0,0 +1,243 @@ +#! /bin/sh +# Copyright (C) 2019 Free Software Foundation, Inc. +# +# This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify +# it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by +# the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or +# (at your option) any later version. +# +# This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, +# but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of +# MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
