You know, Havoc, I personally am not sure. I generally avoid lout for everything but ASCII output. I suggest you submit a bug. What would be nice would be to have alternate techniques for formatting debiandoc-sgml documents. I maintain both jade and sdc. With jade, we'd need DSSSL to be able to format debiandoc-sgml, but the limitation with jade is that it doesn't have ASCII or NROFF backends, and it seems that people are loath to add backend to jade since apparently its wierd C++ code. sdc's problem is that it uses non-free bigloo, but little birdies tell me that will be fixed by late fall. -- .....A.
