I'm trying to find a content markup system (authoring and processing) that can
output to various formats. Something which can be both viewed and printed,
such as PDF, is probably a must, and something easily accessed online, such as
HTML is close behind. If I could also produce CHM (or similar) Wi

Hi, all.
I figured I'd send a quick query to the list about using LyX with
Docbook/XML. I know there's been a little bit of traffic on this in the
past, but I haven't seen anything recently, and my searches online haven't
turned up much else, either.
We're in the process of evaluating s

I can't comment on the ability of the script to do the task you set it, but
here's some comments on the script itself:
Isn't "function" a bash-ism? You can just use "lyxvalue" here.
function lyxvalue()
You should enclose $2 in double quotes. It might contain spaces

Hi. I was just wondering if anyone had any advice or tutorials for using Lyx
and Docbook (SGML and XML documents) for LDP work.
My intention is to create a LDP Guide and/or Howto.
I've already had this written in LyX but their rules only allow docbook,
SGML or XML
Any advice?

Hello all,
Is there somebody who succesfully uses Lyx to build Docbook documents?
And with documents I mean not only following the template included in Lyx,
but the whole thing: prefaces, appendices, FAQ's, etc.
Maybe someome can point me to some examples?
