Hi all, I have further improved the wiki->texi converter, to the point where it is able to produce a usable Chicken manual in Texinfo format. I have created a ticket on trac.calcc.org that includes a texinfo-related patch to stream-wiki, and an example script to generate the manual:
http://trac.callcc.org/ticket/289 There are still the following restrictions remaining: 1. The input files need to be ordered according to their logical order. Apparently the Texinfo conventions require that the sectional units are in the order suggested by their navigational links. So a Texinfo document that consists of sectional units ordered in e.g. alphabetical order, is not permitted to have navigational links that impose a different order. 2. All the references in the wiki documents must refer to sectional units, such as chapters, sections, and subsections. Whereas in a wiki document you could have a link like [[User's manual]], which points to a wiki _page_ of that title, the wiki->texi converter does not know about wiki pages (because the stream-wiki driver API is stream-oriented, not page-oriented) so in order for a link to be valid in the Texinfo document, it must point to a section or subsection. The wiki->texi converter also requires that all wiki (local) references point to sectional units that are present in the input wiki stream. So I have changed all references to eggs in the Chicken wiki manual from e.g. [[tinyclos]] to [[http://www.call-with-current-continuation.org/tinyclos.html]], otherwise the Chicken manual would also have to include the documentation for the eggs it refers to. _______________________________________________ Chicken-users mailing list Chicken-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-users
