Hi, I started using sphinx around six months ago and find it easy to use and powerful. I found, however, a problem when using :abbr:and I do not know whether it is a bug or something I am missing. So, here's the point: Whenever I write, say :abbr:`SSH (Secure SHell)`, no problem, it works perfectly and creates a nice HTML tooltip. Problems start when e.g., the terms between braces are split on two lines, i.e.,
:abbr:`SSH (Secure SHell)` In this case, indeed, no tooltip is generated, but the whole expression (i.e., SSH (Secure SHell)) is printed as normal text, like I didn't use :abbr: As I am using even rather long abbreviations, it is likely that expressions are written on two lines, not generating the tooltip. I solved the problem by putting all :abbr: in an external file and including it in the files, so not a big problem, but wonder whether this is a bug or it is a problem with my installation/package or whatever. I use sphinx 1.0.7 (but same happened with 0.6.6) on debian and ubuntu and emacs 22, if this may help. The problem is reproducible even with two lines of text in an otherwise empty index.rst file, while any other directive works flawless, even e.g., :menuselection: which sometimes may become pretty long and complex. Thanks for your attention! Cheers, Stefano -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sphinx-dev" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
