These scripts and Makefile fragment are used to convert the Python
documentation in LaTeX format to SGML. XML is also supported as a
target, but is unlikely to be used.
This material is highly preliminary and incomplete. The XML omnibus
package developed by the Python XML-SIG is required. See
http://www.python.org/sigs/xml-sig/ for more information on the
package.
To convert a document to SGML:
cd Doc/<document-dir>
make -f ../tools/sgmlconv/make.rules TOOLSDIR=../tools
To generate XML instead, use:
cd Doc/<document-dir>
make -f ../tools/sgmlconv/make.rules TOOLSDIR=../tools xml
Note that building the second target format is fast because both
conversions use the same intermediate format (an ESIS event stream).
