I don't understand Hurd translators well enough to envision any more details yet, but that's the rough idea. But as Marco mentioned, I'm now sure how far we're stretching the idea of translator to do this. I was thinking more from a user's point of view in using Hurd's unique features. > In the Web field, it could also be very interesting to fill up > directories with automatic alternatives, but they would only be > generated if really needed: > > - foo.xml [original, docbook] > - foo.xml.gz > - foo.html > - foo.html.gz > - foo.pdf > - etc... With a right caching mechanism in place it'd be sweet. Although I have yet to find THE STANDARD method of transforming using DocBook XML DTD, I think we're getting there as a community. -- Behold not the clay for it is only a short stay. - Seong Wu Michael ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) _______________________________________________ Help-hurd mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-hurd
