Closes bug #1680836. + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: inline.xsl; xref.xsl; footnote.xsl + + Added capability in FO output for displaying URLs for all + hyperlinks (elements marked up with xlink:href attributes) in the + same way as URLs for ulinks are already handled (which is to say, + either inline or as numbered footnotes). + + Background on this change: + DocBook 5 allows "ubiquitous" linking, which means you can make + any element a hyperlink just by adding an xlink:href attribute to + it, with the value set to an external URL. That's in contrast to + DocBook 4, which only allows you to use specific elements (e.g., + the link and ulink elements) to mark up hyperlinks. + + The existing FO stylesheets have a mechanism for handling display + of URLs for hyperlinks that are marked up with ulink, but they did + not handle display of URLs for elements that were marked up with + xlink:href attributes. This change adds handling for those other + elements, enabling the URLs they link to be displayed either + inline or as numbered footnotes (depending on what values the user + has the ulink.show and ulink.footnotes params set to). + + Note that this change only adds URL display support for elements + that call the simple.xlink template -- which currently is most + (but not all) inline elements. + + This change also moves the URL display handling out of the ulink + template and into a new "hyperlink.url.display" named template; + the ulink template and the simple.xlink named template now both + call the hyperlink.url.display template. + + Warning: In the stylesheet code that determines what footnote + number to assign to each footnote or external hyperlink, there is + an XPath expression for determining whether a particular + xlink:href instance is an external hyperlink; that expression is + necessarily a bit complicated and further testing may reveal that + it doesn't handle all cases as expected -- so some refinements to + it may need to be done later. + + Closes #1785519.

The parameter + definitions are no longer output in a table (though the prototype + still is). The reason for the change is that the + kr-tabular-funcsynopsis-mode template was causing type data to be + lost in the output parameter definitions. For example, for an + instance like this: + <paramdef>void *<parameter>dataptr</parameter>[]</paramdef> + ... the brackets (indicating an array type) were being dropped. + The easiest way to deal with the problem is to not try to chop up + the parameter definitions and display them in table format, but to + instead just output them as-is.

We now use the groff \w escape to hang by the actual width + -- in the current font -- of the command, funcdef, or + synopfragment references number (as opposed to hanging by the + number of characters). This rendering in TTY output remains the + same, since the width in monospaced TTY output is the same as the + number of characters. + + Also, created new synopsis-block-start and synopsis-block-end + templates to use for cmdsynopsis and funcsynopsis instead of the + corresponding verbatim-* templates. + + Along with those changes, also corrected a problem that caused the + content of synopfragment to be dropped, and made a + vertical-spacing change to adjust spacing around table titles and + among sibling synopfragment instances. + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: other.xsl + + use common l10.language.name template to retrieve English-language name + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: synop.xsl; inline.xsl + + added comment in code explaining why we don't put filename output + in italic (despite the fact that man guidelines say we should) + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: inline.xsl + + put filename output in monospace instead of italic + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: synop.xsl + + put cmdsynopsis in monospace + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: inline.xsl + + removed template match for literal. template matches for monospace + inlines are all imported from the HTML stylesheet + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: block.xsl + + don't indent verbatim environments that are descendants of + refsynopsisdiv, not put backgrounds behind them + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: inline.xsl + + set output of the literal element in monospace. this causes all + inline monospace instances in the git man pages to be set in + monospace (since DocBook XML source for git docs is generated with + asciidoc and asciidoc consistently outputs only <literal> for + inline monospace (not <command> or <code> or anything else). + Of course this only affects non-TTY output... + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: utility.xsl + + Added inline.monoseq named template. + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: utility.xsl + + don't bother using a custom register to store the previous + font-family value when setting blocks of text in code font; just + use \F[] .fam with no arg to switch back + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: endnotes.xsl + + put links in blue in PS output (note that this matches how groff + renders content marked up with the .URL macro) + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: endnotes.xsl; param.xweb; param.ent + + removed man.links.are.underlined and added man.font.links.

Also, + changed the default font formatting for links to bold. + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: man.base.url.for.relative.links.xml + + Added new param man.base.url.for.relative.links .. specifies a + base URL for relative links (for ulink, @xlink:href, imagedata, + audiodata, videodata) shown in the generated NOTES section of + man-page output. The value of man.base.url.for.relative.links is + prepended to any relative URI that is a value of ulink url, + xlink:href, or fileref attribute. + + If you use relative URIs in link sources in your DocBook refentry + source, and you leave man.base.url.for.relative.links unset, the + relative links will appear "as is" in the NOTES section of any + man-page output generated from your source. That's probably not + what you want, because such relative links are only usable in the + context of HTML output. So, to make the links meaningful and + usable in the context of man-page output, set a value for + man.base.url.for.relative.links that points + to the online version of HTML output generated from your DocBook + refentry source. For example: + + <xsl:param name="man.base.url.for.relative.links" + >http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/</xsl:param> + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: man.string.subst.map.xml + + squeeze .sp\n.sp into a single .sp (to prevent a extra, spurious + line of whitespace from being inserted after programlisting etc. + in certain cases) + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: refentry.manual.fallback.profile.xml; + refentry.source.fallback.profile.⋯ + + don't use refmiscinfo@class=date value as fallback for refentry + "source" or "manual" metadata fields + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: man.charmap.subset.profile.xml; man.charmap.enabled.xml; + man.charmap.su⋯ + + made some further doc tweaks related to the + man.charmap.subset.profile.english param + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: man.charmap.subset.profile.xml; man.charmap.enabled.xml; + man.charmap.su⋯ + + Added the man.charmap.subset.profile.english parameter and refined + the handling of charmap subsets to differentiate between English + and non-English source. + + This way charmap subsets are now handled is this: + + If the value of the man.charmap.use.subset parameter is non-zero, + and your DocBook source is not written in English (that is, if its + lang or xml:lang attribute has a value other than en), then the + character-map subset specified by the man.charmap.subset.profile + parameter is used instead of the full roff character map. + + Otherwise, if the lang or xml:lang attribute on the root element + in your DocBook source or on the first refentry element in your + source has the value en or if it has no lang or xml:lang + attribute, then the character-map subset specified by the + man.charmap.subset.profile.english parameter is used instead of + man.charmap.subset.profile. + + The difference between the two subsets is that + man.charmap.subset.profile provides mappings for characters in + Western European languages that are not part of the Roman + (English) alphabet (ASCII character set). + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: man.charmap.subset.profile.xml + + Added to default charmap used by manpages: + + - the "letters" part of the 'C1 Controls And Latin-1 Supplement + (Latin-1 Supplement)' Unicode block + - Latin Extended-A block (but not all of the characters from + that block have mappings in groff, so some of them are still + passed through as-is) + + The effects of this change are that in man pages generated for + most Western European languages and for Finnish, all characters + not part of the Roman alphabet are (e.g., "accented" characters) + are converted to groff escapes. + + Previously, by default we passed through those characters as is + (and users needed to use the full charmap if they wanted to have + those characters converted). + + As a result of this change, man pages generated for Western + European languages will be viewable in some environments in which + they are not viewable if the "raw" non-Roman characters are in them. + + ● Mauritz Jeanson: generate.legalnotice.link.xml; + generate.revhistory.link.xml + + Added information on how the filename is computed. + + ● Mauritz Jeanson: default.table.width.xml + + Clarified PI usage. + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: man.funcsynopsis.style.xml + + Added the man.funcsynopsis.style parameter. Has the same effect in + manpages output as the funcsynopsis.style parameter has in HTML + output -- except that its default value is 'ansi' instead of 'kr'. + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: funcsynopsis.tabular.threshold.xml + + Removed the funcsynopsis.tabular.threshold param. It's no longer + being used in the code and hasn't been since mid 2006. + + ● Mauritz Jeanson: table.properties.xml + + Set keep-together.within-column to "auto". This seems to be the most sensible + default value for tables. + + ● Mauritz Jeanson: informal.object.properties.xml; + admon.graphics.extension.xml; informalequ⋯ + + Several small documentation fixes. + + ● Mauritz Jeanson: manifest.in.base.dir.xml + + Wording fixes. + + ● Mauritz Jeanson: header.content.properties.xml; + footer.content.properties.xml + + Added refpurpose. + + ● Mauritz Jeanson: ulink.footnotes.xml; ulink.show.xml + + Updated for DocBook 5. + + ● Mauritz Jeanson: index.method.xml; glossterm.auto.link.xml + + Spelling and wording fixes. + + ● Mauritz Jeanson: callout.graphics.extension.xml + + Clarifed available graphics formats and extensions. + + ● Mauritz Jeanson: footnote.sep.leader.properties.xml + + Corrected refpurpose. + + ● Jirka Kosek: footnote.properties.xml + + Added more properties which make it possible to render correctly footnotes placed inside verbatim elements. + + ● Mauritz Jeanson: img.src.path.xml + + img.src.path works with inlinegraphic too. + + ● Mauritz Jeanson: saxon.character.representation.xml + + Added TCG link. + + ● Mauritz Jeanson: img.src.path.xml + + Updated description of img.src.path. Bug #1785224 revealed that + there was a risk of misunderstanding how it works. + +Profiling + +The following changes have been made to the profiling code since the 1.73.2 +release. + + ● Jirka Kosek: xsl2profile.xsl + + Added new rules to profile all content generated by HTML Help (including alias files) + + ● Robert Stayton: profile-mode.xsl + + use mode="profile" instead of xsl:copy-of for attributes so + they can be more easily customized. + +Tools + +The following changes have been made to the tools code since the 1.73.2 +release. + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: make/Makefile.DocBook + + various changes and additions to support making with asciidoc as + an input format + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: make/Makefile.DocBook + + make dblatex the default PDF maker for the example makefile + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: xsl/build/html2roff.xsl + + Reworked handling of K&R funcprototype output. It no longer relies + on the HTML kr-tabular templates, but instead just does direct + transformation to roff. For K&R output, it displays the paramdef + output in an indented list following the prototype. + + ● Mauritz Jeanson: xsl/build/make-xsl-params.xsl + + Made attribute-sets members of the param list. This enables links to attribute-sets in the + reference documentation. + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: xsl/build/html2roff.xsl + + use .BI handling in K&R funsynopsis output for manpages, just as + we do already of ANSI output + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: xsl/build/html2roff.xsl + + Implemented initial support for handling tabular K&R output of + funcprototype in manpages output. Accomplished by adding more + templates to the intermediate HTML-to-roff stylesheet that the + build uses to create the manpages/html-synop.xsl stylesheet. + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: xsl/build/doc-link-docbook.xsl + + Made the xsl/tools/xsl/build/doc-link-docbook.xsl stylesheet + import profile-docbook.xsl, so that we can do profiling of release + notes.

Previously, + there was a test prohibiting this (and a comment saying that outputting more + than one width attribute will cause an error). But this seems to be no longer + relevant; it is not a problem with FOP 0.93 or XEP 4.10. Closes bug #1760559. + + ● Mauritz Jeanson: graphics.xsl + + Replaced useless <a> elements with warning messages (textinsert extension). + + ● Mauritz Jeanson: admon.xsl + + Enabled generation of ids (on fo:wrapper) for indexterms in admonition titles, so that page + references in the index can be created.

Closes bug #1760907. + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: pi.xsl; synop.xsl + + Changed handling of HTML output for the cmdsynopsis and + funcsynopsis elements, such that a@id instances are generated for + them if they are descendants of any element containing a dbcmdlist + or dbfunclist PI. Also, update the embedded reference docs for the + dbcmdlist and dbfunclist PIs to make it clear that they can be + used within any element for which cmdsynopsis or funcsynopsis are + valid children. + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: formal.xsl + + Reverted the part of revision 6952 that caused a@id anchors to be + generated for output of informal objects. Thanks to Sam Steingold + for reporting. + + ● Robert Stayton: glossary.xsl + + Account for a glossary with no glossdiv or glossentry children. + + ● Mauritz Jeanson: titlepage.xsl + + Modified legalnotice template so that the base.name parameter is calculated + in the same way as for revhistory chunks. Using <xsl:apply-templates + mode="chunk-filename" select="."/> did not work for single-page output since + the template with that mode is in chunk-code.xsl. + + ● Mauritz Jeanson: graphics.xsl + + Updated support for SVG (must be a child of imagedata in DB 5). + Added support for MathML in imagedata. + + ● Mauritz Jeanson: pi.xsl + + Added documentation for the dbhh PI (used for context-sensitive HTML Help). + (The two templates matching 'dbhh' are still in htmlhelp-common.xsl). + +Manpages + +The following changes have been made to the manpages code since the 1.73.0 +release. + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: endnotes.xsl + + In manpages output, generate warnings about notesources with + non-para children only if the notesource is a footnote or + annotation. Thanks to Sam Steingold for reporting problems with + the existing handling. + +HTMLHelp + +The following changes have been made to the htmlhelp code since the 1.73.0 +release. + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: htmlhelp-common.xsl + + Added single-pass namespace-stripping support to the htmlhelp, + eclipse, and javahelp stylesheets. + +Eclipse + +The following changes have been made to the eclipse code since the 1.73.0 +release. + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: eclipse.xsl + + Added single-pass namespace-stripping support to the htmlhelp, + eclipse, and javahelp stylesheets. + +JavaHelp + +The following changes have been made to the javahelp code since the 1.73.0 +release. + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: javahelp.xsl + + Added single-pass namespace-stripping support to the htmlhelp, + eclipse, and javahelp stylesheets. + +Roundtrip + +The following changes have been made to the roundtrip code since the 1.73.0 +release. + + ● Steve Ball: blocks2dbk.xsl; blocks2dbk.dtd; pages2normalise.xsl + + Modularised blocks2dbk to allow customisation, + Added support for tables to pages2normalise + +Params + +The following changes have been made to the params code since the 1.73.0 +release. + + ● Robert Stayton: procedure.properties.xml + + procedure was inheriting keep-together from formal.object.properties, but + a procedure does not need to be kept together by default. + + ● Dave Pawson: title.font.family.xml; + component.label.includes.part.label.xml; table.frame.b⋯ + + Regular formatting re-org. + +Release: 1.73.0 + +This release includes important bug fixes and adds the following significant +feature changes: + +New localizations and localization updates + + We added two new localizations: Latvian and Esperanto, and made updates to + the Czech, Chinese Simplified, Mongolian, Serbian, Italian, and Ukrainian + localizations. + +ISO690 citation style for bibliography output. + + Set the bibliography.style parameter to iso690 to use ISO690 style. + +New documentation for processing instructions (PI) + + The reference documentation that ships with the release now includes + documentation on all PIs that you can use to control output from the + stylesheets. + +New profiling parameters for audience and wordsize + + You can now do profiling based on the values of the audience and wordsize + attributes. + +Changes to man-page output + + The manpages stylesheet now supports single-pass profiling and single-pass + DocBook 5 namespace stripping (just as the HTML and FO stylesheets also + do). Also, added handling for mediaobject & inlinemediaobject. (Each + imagedata, audiodata, or videodata element within a mediaobject or inline + mediaobject is now treated as a "notesource" and so handled in much the + same way as links and annotation/alt/footnote are in manpages output.)

Should be transparent to users, but... + + This touches handling of all bold and italic/underline output. The + exact change is that the mode="bold" and mode="italic" utility + templates were changed to named templates. (I think maybe I've + changed it back and forth from mode to named before, so this is + maybe re-reverting it yet again). + + Anyway, the reason for the change is that the templates are + sometimes call on dynamically node-sets, and using modes to format + those doesn't allow passing info about the current/real context + node from the source (not the node-set created by the stylesheet) + to that formatting stage. + + The named templates allow the context to be passed in as a + parameter, so that the bold/ital formatting template can use + context-aware condition checking. + + This was basically necessary in order to suppress bold formatting + in titles, which otherwise gets screwed up because of the numbnut + way that roff handles nested bold/ital. + + Closes #1674534).

This change obviates the need for the + marker system. It also requires a lot less RAM during + processing (for large files, the marker mechanism + ending up requiring gigabytes of memory). + + Closes bug #1661177.

So I added a .sp before each .RS + + ● Michael(tm) Smith: block.xsl; inline.xsl; param.xweb; docbook.xsl; + links.xsl; param.ent + + Made a number of changes related to elements with + out-of-line content: + + - Added handling for mediaobject & inlinemediaobject. + Each imagedata, audiodata, or videodata element + within a mediaobject or inline mediaobject is now + treated as a "notesource" and so handled in much the + same way as links and annotation/alt/footnotes. + + That means a numbered marker is generated inline to + mark the place in the main flow where the imagedata, + audiodata, or videodata element occurs, and a + corresponding numbered endnote for it is generated in + the endnotes list at the end of the man page; the + endnote contains the URL from the fileref attribute + of the imagedata, audiodata, or videodata element. + + For mediobject and inlinemediaobject instances that + have a textobject child, the textobject is displayed + within the main text flow. + + - Renamed several man.link.* params to man.endnotes.*, + to reflect that fact that the endnotes list now + contains more than just links. Also did similar + renaming for a number of stylesheet-internal vars. + + - Added support for xlink:href (along with existing + support for the legacy ulink element). + + - Cleaned up and streamlined the endnotes-handling + code. It's still messy and klunky and the basic + mechanism it uses is very inefficent for documents + that contain a lot of notesources, but at least it's + a bit better than it was. + +Eclipse + +The following changes have been made to the eclipse code since the 1.72.0 +release. + + ● Mauritz Jeanson: Makefile + + Fixed bug #1715093: Makefile for creating profiled version of eclipse.xsl added. + + ● David Cramer: eclipse.xsl + + Added normalize-space around to avoid leading whitespace from appearing in the output if there's extra leading whitespace (e.g. <title> Foo</title>) in the source + +JavaHelp + +The following changes have been made to the javahelp code since the 1.72.0 +release. + + ● Mauritz Jeanson: javahelp.xsl + + Implemented FR #1230233 (sorted index in javahelp). + + ● Mauritz Jeanson: javahelp.xsl + + Added normalize-space() around titles and index entries to work around whitespace problems. + Added support for glossary and bibliography in toc and map files. + +Roundtrip + +The following changes have been made to the roundtrip code since the 1.72.0 +release. + + ● Steve Ball: blocks2dbk.xsl;

To enable glossary sorting, set the value of the glossary.sort + parameter to 1 (by default, it’s value is 0). When you enable glossary + sorting, glossentry elements within a glossary, glossdiv, or glosslist are + sorted on the glossterm, using the current language setting. If you don’t + enable glossary sorting, then the order of glossentry elements is left “as + is” — that is, they are not sorted but are instead just displayed in + document order. + +WordML renamed to Roundtrip, OpenOffice support added + + Stylesheets for “roundtrip” conversion between documents in OpenOffice + format (ODF) and DocBook XML have been added to the set of stylesheets that + formerly had the collective title WordML, and that set of stylesheets has + been renamed to Roundtrip to better reflect the actual scope and purpose of + its contents. + + So the DocBook XSL Stylesheets now support roundtrip conversion (with + certain limitations) of WordML, OpenOffice, and Apple Pages documents to + and from DocBook XML. + +Including QandASet questions in TOCs + + The HTML stylesheet now provides support for including QandASet questions + in the document TOC. To enable display of questions in the document TOC, + set the value of the qanda.in.toc to 1 (by default, it’s 0). When you + enable qanda.in.toc, then the generated table of contents for a document + will include qandaset titles, qandadiv titles, and question elements. The + default value of zero excludes them from the TOC. + + Note + + The qanda.in.toc parameter does not affect any tables of contents that may + be generated within a qandaset or qandadiv (only in the document TOC). + +Language identifier in man-page filenames and pathnames + + Added new parameter man.output.lang.in.name.enabled, which controls whether + a language identifier is included in man-page filenames and pathnames. It + works like this: + + If the value of man.output.lang.in.name.enabled is non-zero, man-page files + are output with a language identifier included in their filenames or + pathnames as follows: + + ● if man.output.subdirs.enabled is non-zero, each file is output to, + e.g., a /$lang/man8/foo.8 pathname + + ● if man.output.subdirs.enabled is zero, each file is output with a + foo.$lang.8 filename + +index.page.number.properties property set + + For FO output, use the index.page.number.properties to control formatting + of page numbers in index output — to (for example) to display page numbers + in index output in a different color (to indicate that they are links). + +Crop marks in output from Antenna House XSL Formatter + + Support has been added for generating crop marks in print/PDF output + generated using Antenna House XSL Formatter + +More string-substitution hooks in manpages output + + The man.string.subst.map.local.pre and man.string.subst.map.local.post + parameters have been added to enable easier control over custom string + substitutions. + +Moved verbatim properties to attribute-set + + The hardcoded properties used in verbatim elements (literallayout, + programlisting, screen) were moved to the verbatim.properties attribute-set + so they can be more easily customized. + +enhanced simple.xlink template + + Now the simple.xlink template in inline.xsl works with cross reference + elements xref and link as well. Also, more elements call simple.xlink, + which enables DB5 xlink functionality. + +DocBook 5 compatibility + + Stylesheets now consistently support DocBook 5 attributes (such as xml:id). + Also, DocBook 5 info elements are now checked along with other *info + elements, and the use of name() function was replaced by local-name() so it + also matches on DocBook 5 elements. These changes enable reusing the + stylesheets with DocBook 5 documents with minimal fixup. + +HTML class attributes now handled in class.attribute mode + + The HTML class attributes were formerly hardcoded to the element name. Now + the class attribute is generated by applying templates in class.attribute + mode so class attribute names can be customized. The default is still the + element name. + +arabic-indic numbering enabled in autolabels + + Numbering of chapter, sections, and pages can now use arabic-indic + numbering when number format is set to 'arabicindic' or to ١. + +The following is a detailed list of changes (not including bug fixes) that have +been made since the 1.71.1 release. + +Common + +The following changes have been made to the common code since the 1.71.1 +release. + + ● Add support for arabicindic numbering to autolabel.format template. + + ● Finish support for @xml:id everywhere @id is used. + + ● replace name() with local-name() in most cases. + + ● Add support for info. + + ● Add utility template tabstyle to return the tabstyle from + any table element. + +FO + +The following changes have been made to the fo code since the 1.71.1 release. + + ● Add support for sorting glossary entries + + ● Add table.row.properties template to customize table rows. + + ● Moved all properties to attribute-sets so can be customized more easily. + + ● Add index.page.number.properties attribute-set to format page numbers. + + ● xref now supports xlink:href, using simple.xlink template. + + ● Rewrote simple.xlink, and call it with all charseq templates. + + ● Add simple.xlink processing to term and member elements. + + ● Add support for crop marks in Antenna House. + +HTML + +The following changes have been made to the html code since the 1.71.1 release. + + ● Add support for sorting glossary entries + + ● Add support for qanda.in.toc to add qandaentry questions to document TOC. + + ● add simple.xlink support to variablelist term and simplelist member. + + ● *.propagates.style now handled in class.attribute mode. + + ● add class parameter to class.attribute mode to set default class. + + ● Convert all class attributes to use the class.attribute mode + so class names can be customized more easily. + + ● Add class.attribute mode to generate class attributes. + + ● Added simple.xlink to most remaining inlines. + Changed class attributes to applying class.attributes mode. + + ● Changed xref template to use simple.xlink tempalte. + + ● Improve generate.html.title to work with link targets too. + + ● Improved simple.xlink to support link and xref. + + ● Use new link.title.attribute now. + + ● Rewrote simple.xlink to handle linkend also. + Better computation of title attribute on link too. + + ● Handle Xalan quirk as special case. + + ● Add support for info. + + ● Fixed imagemaps so they work properly going from calspair coords + to HTML area coords. + +Manpages + +The following changes have been made to the manpages code since the 1.71.1 +release. + + ● Added doc for man.output.lang.in.name.enabled parameter. This + checkin completes support for writing file/pathnames for man-pages + with $lang include in the names. Closes #1585967. knightly + accolades to Daniel Leidert for providing the feature request. + + ● Added new param man.output.lang.in.name.enabled, which + controls whether $LANG value is included in manpages + filenames and pathnames. It works like this: + + If the value of man.output.lang.in.name.enabled is non-zero, + man-page files are output with the $lang value included in + their filenames or pathnames as follows; + + - if man.output.subdirs.enabled is non-zero, each file is + output to, e.g., a /$lang/man8/foo.8 pathname + + - if man.output.subdirs.enabled is zero, each file is output + with a foo.$lang.8 filename + + ● Use "\e" instead of "\\" for backslash output, because the + groff docs say that's the correct thing to do; also because + testing (thanks, Paul Dubois) shows that "\\" doesn't always + work as expected; for example, "\\" within a table seems to + mess things up. + + ● Added the man.string.subst.map.local.pre and + man.string.subst.map.local.post parameters.

Thanks to Sam Steingold for constructing a true + stylesheet torture test (the clisp docs) that exposed the need for + these params. + + ● Added the Markup element to the list of elements that get output + in bold. Thanks to Eric S. Raymond. + + ● Replaced all dots in roff requests with U+2302 ("house" + character), and added escaping in output for all instances of dot + that are not in roff requests.

Thanks to Eric + S. Raymond for pushing to fix this. + + ● Made change to ensure that list content nested in + itemizedlist and orderedlist instances is properly indented. This + is a switch from using .TP to format those lists to using .RS/.RE + to format them instead (because .TP does not allow nesting).

Also the man.indent.blurbs param was called + man.indentation.authors.adjust (or something). + + The behavior now is: If the value of a particular man.indent.* boolean + param is non-zero, the corresponding contents (refsect*, list items, + authorblurb/personblurb, vervatims) are displayed with a left margin + indented by a width equal to the value of man.indent.width. + + Modified: params/man.indent.blurbs.xml,1.1; manpages/docbook.xsl,1.74; + manpages/info.xsl,1.20; manpages/lists.xsl,1.30; manpages/other.xsl,1.20; + manpages/param.ent,1.22; manpages/param.xweb,1.24; manpages/ + refentry.xsl,1.14; params/man.indent.lists.xml,1.1; params/ + man.indent.refsect.xml,1.1; params/man.indent.verbatims.xml,1.1; params/ + man.indent.width.xml,1.1 - Michael(tm) Smith + + ● Added man.table.footnotes.divider param. + + In each table that contains footenotes, the string specified by the man. + table.footnotes.divider parameter is output before the list of footnotes + for the table. + + Modified: manpages/docbook.xsl,1.73; manpages/links.xsl,1.6; manpages/ + param.ent,1.21; manpages/param.xweb,1.23; params/ + man.table.footnotes.divider.xml,1.1 - Michael(tm) Smith + + ● Added the man.output.in.separate.dir, man.output.base.dir, and + man.output.subdirs.enabled parameters. + + The man.output.base.dir parameter specifies the base directory into which + man-page files are output.

Closes #1450209. + + Modified: manpages/docbook.xsl,1.59; manpages/info.xsl,1.17 - Michael(tm) + Smith + + ● Drastically reworked all of the XPath expressions used in refentry metadata + gathering -- completely removed $parentinfo and turned $info into a set of + nodes that includes the *info contents of the Refentry plus the *info + contents all all of its ancestor elements. The basic XPath expression now + used throughout is (using the example of checking for a date): + + (($info[//date])[last()]/date)[1]. + + That selects the "last" *info/date date in document order -- that is, the + one eitther on the Refentry itself or on the closest ancestor to the + Refentry. + + It's likely this change may break some things; may need to pick up some + pieces later. + + Also, changed the default value for the man.th.extra2.max.length from 40 to + 30. + + Modified: common/common.xsl,1.58; common/refentry.xsl,1.7; params/ + man.th.extra2.max.length.xml,1.2; params/refentry.date.profile.xml,1.2; + params/refentry.manual.profile.xml,1.2; params/ + refentry.source.name.profile.xml,1.2; params/ + refentry.version.profile.xml,1.2; manpages/docbook.xsl,1.58; manpages/ + other.xsl,1.15 - Michael(tm) Smith + + ● Added support for DocBook 5 namespace-stripping in manpages stylesheet. + Closes request #1210692. + + Modified: common/common.xsl,1.56; manpages/docbook.xsl,1.57 - Michael(tm) + Smith + + ● Fixed handling of table footnotes. With this checkin, the table support in + the manpages stylesheet is now basically feature complete. So this change + closes request #619532, "No support for tables" -- the oldest currently + open manpages feature request, submitted by Ben Secrest (blsecres) on + 2002-10-07. Congratulations to me [patting myself on the back]. + + Modified: manpages/block.xsl,1.11; manpages/docbook.xsl,1.55; manpages/ + table.xsl,1.15 - Michael(tm) Smith + + ● Added handling for table titles. Also fixed handling of nested tables; nest + tables are now "extracted" and displayed just after their parent tables. + + Modified: manpages/docbook.xsl,1.54; manpages/table.xsl,1.14 - Michael(tm) + Smith + + ● Added option for turning off bold formatting in Funcsynopsis. Boldface + formatting in function synopsis is mandated in the man(7) man page and is + used almost universally in existing man pages. Despite that, it really does + look like crap to have an entire Funcsynopsis output in bold, so I added + params for turning off the bold formatting and/or replacing it with a + different roff special font (e.g., "RI" for alternating roman/italic + instead of the default "BI" for alternating bold/italic). The new params + are "man.funcprototype.font" and "man.funcsynopsisinfo.font". To be + documented later. + + Closes #1452247. Thanks to Joe Orton for the feature request. + + Modified: params/man.string.subst.map.xml,1.16; manpages/block.xsl,1.10; + manpages/docbook.xsl,1.51; manpages/inline.xsl,1.16; manpages/ + synop.xsl,1.27 - Michael(tm) Smith + + ● Use AUTHORS instead of AUTHOR if we have multiple people to attribute. + Also, fixed checking such that we generate author section even if we don't + have an author (as long as there is at least one other person/entity we can + put in the section). Also adjusted assembly of content for Author metainfo + field such that we now not only use author, but try to find a "best match" + if we can't find an author name to put there. + + Closes #1233592. Thanks to Sam Steingold for the request. + + Modified: manpages/info.xsl,1.12 - Michael(tm) Smith + + ● Changes for request #1243027, "Impove handling of AUTHOR section." This + adds support for Collab, Corpauthor, Corpcredt, Orgname, Publishername, and + Publisher. Also adds support for output of Affiliation and its children, + and support for using gentext strings for auto-attributing roles (Author, + Editor, Publisher, Translator, etc.). Also did a lot of code cleanup and + modularization of all the AUTHOR handling code. And fixed a bug that was + causing Author info to not be picked up correctly for metainfo comment we + embed in man-page source. + + Modified: manpages/info.xsl,1.11 - Michael(tm) Smith + + ● Support bold output for "emphasis remap='B'". (because Eric Raymond's + doclifter(1) tool converts groff source marked up with ".B" request or "\ + fB" escapes to DocBook "emphasis remap='B'".) + + Modified: manpages/inline.xsl,1.14 - Michael(tm) Smith + + ● Added support for Segmentedlist. Details: Output is tabular, with no option + for "list" type output. Output for Segtitle elements can be supressed by + setting man.segtitle.suppress. If Segtitle content is output, it is + rendered in italic type (not bold because not all terminals support bold + and so italic ensures the stand out on those terminals). Extra space (.sp + line) at end of table code ensures that it gets handled correctly in the + case where its source is the child of a Para. Closes feature-request # + 1400097. Thanks to Daniel Leidert for the patch and push, and to Alastair + Rankine for filing the original feature request. + + Modified: manpages/lists.xsl,1.23; manpages/utility.xsl,1.10 - Michael(tm) + Smith + + ● Improved handling or Author/Editor/Othercredit. + + Reworked content of (non-visible) comment added at top of each page + (metadata stuff). + + Added support for generating a manifest file (useful for cleaning up after + builds, etc.) + + Modified: manpages/docbook.xsl,1.46; manpages/info.xsl,1.9; manpages/ + other.xsl,1.12; manpages/utility.xsl,1.6 - Michael(tm) Smith + + ● Added two new parameters for handling of multi-term varlistentry elements: + + variablelist.term.break.after: When the variablelist.term.break.after is + non-zero, it will generate a line break after each term multi-term + varlistentry. + + variablelist.term.separator: When a varlistentry contains multiple term + elements, the string specified in the value of the + variablelist.term.separator parameter is placed after each term except the + last. The default is ", " (a comma followed by a space). To suppress + rendering of the separator, set the value of variablelist.term.separator to + the empty string (""). + + These parameters are primarily intended to be useful if you have multi-term + varlistentries that have long terms. + + Closes #1306676. Thanks to Sam Steingold for providing an example "lots of + long terms" doc that demonstrated the value of having these options. + + Also, added normalize-space() call to processing of each term. + + This change affects all output formats (HTML, PDF, manpages).

Along with bug +fixes, it includes one configuration-parameter change: The default value of the +annotation.support parameter is now 0 (off). The reason for that change is that +there have been reports that annotation handling is causing a significant +performance degradation in processing of large documents with xsltproc. + +Release 1.69.0 + +The release includes major feature changes, particularly in the manpages +stylesheets, as well as a large number of bug fixes. + +As with all DocBook Project “dot zero” releases, this is an experimental +release . + +Common + + ● This release adds localizations for the following languages: Albanian, + Amharic, Azerbaijani, Hindi, Irish (Gaelic), Gujarati, Kannada, Mongolian, + Oriya, Punjabi, Tagalog, Tamil, and Welsh. + + ● Added support for specifying number format for auto labels for chapter, + appendix, part, and preface. Contolled with the appendix.autolabel, + chapter.autolabel, part.autolabel, and preface.autolabel parameters. + + ● Added basic support for biblioref cross referencing. + + ● Added support for align on caption in mediaobject. + + ● Added support for processing documents that use the DocBook V5 namespace. + + ● Added support for termdef and mathphrase. + + ● EXPERIMENTAL: Incorporated the Slides and Website stylesheets into the + DocBook XSL stylesheets package. So, for example, Website documents can now + be processed using the following URI for the driver Website tabular.xsl + file: + + http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/website/tabular.xsl + + ● A procedure without a title is now treated as an “informal” procedure + (meaning that it is not added to any generated “list of procedures” and has + no affect on numbering of generated labels for other procedures). + + ● docname is no longer added to olink when pointing to a root element. + + ● Added support for generation of choice separator in inline simplelist. This + enables auto-generation of an appropriate localized “choice separator” (for + example, “and” or “or”) before the final item in an inline simplelist. + + To indicate that you want a choice separator generated for a particular + list, you need to put a processing instruction (PI) of the form <? + dbchoice choice="foo"?> as a child of the list. For example: + + <para>Choose from + ONE and ONLY ONE of the following: + <simplelist type="inline"> + <?dbchoice choice="or" ?> + <member>A</member> + <member>B</member> + <member>C</member>.</simplelist></para> + + Output (for English): + + Choose from ONE and only ONE of the following choices: A, B, or C. + + As a temporary workaround for the fact that most of the DocBook non-English + locale files don't have a localization for the word “or”, you can put in a + literal string to be used; example for French: <?dbchoice choice="ou">. + That is, use “ou” instead of “or”. + +FO + + ● Added content-type property to external-graphic element, based on imagedata + format attribute. + + ● Added support for generating <rx:meta-field creator="$VERSION"/> field for + XEP output. This makes the DocBook XSL stylesheet version information + available through the Document Properties menu in Acrobat Reader and other + PDF viewers. + + ● Trademark symbol handling made consistent with handling of same in HTML + stylesheets. Prior to this change, if you processed a document that + contained no value for the class attribute on the trademark element, the + HTML stylesheets would default to rendering a superscript TM symbol after + the trademark contents, but the FO stylesheets would render nothing. + + ● Added support for generating XEP bookmarks for refentry. + + ● Added support for HTML markup table border attribute, applied to each table + cell. + + ● The table.width template can now sum column specs if none use % or *. + + ● Added fox:destination extension inside fox:outline to support linking to + internal destinations. + + ● Added support for customizing abstract with property sets. Controlled with + the abstract.properties and abstract.title.properties parameters. + + ● Add footnotes in table title to table footnote set, and add support for + table footnotes to HTML table markup. + + ● Added support for title in glosslist. + + ● Added support for itemizedlist symbol none. + + ● Implemented the new graphical.admonition.properties and + nongraphical.admonition.properties attribute sets. + + ● Added id to formalpara and some other blocks that were missing it. + + ● Changed the anchor template to output fo:inline instead of fo:wrapper. + + ● Added support for toc.max.depth parameter. + +Help + + ● Eclipse Help: Added support for generating olink database. + +HTML + + ● Added a first cut at support in HTML output for DocBook 5 style annotation + s. Controlled using the annotation.support parameter, and implemented using + JavaScript and CSS styling. For more details, see the documentation for the + annotation.js, annotation.css, annotation.graphic.open, and + annotation.graphic.close parameters. + + ● Generate client-side image map for imageobjectco with areas using calspair + units + + ● Added support for <?img.src.path?> PI. + + ● Added support for passing img.src.path to DocBook Java XSLT image + extensions when appropriate. Controlled using the + graphicsize.use.img.src.path parameter. + + ● Added support for (not valid for DocBook 4) xlink:href on area and (not + valid for DocBook 4) alt in area. + + ● Added new parameter default.table.frame to control table framing if there + is no frame attribute on a table. + + ● Added initial, experimental support for generating content for the HTML + title attribute from content of the alt element. This change adds support + for the following inline elements only (none of them are block elements): + abbrev, accel, acronym, action, application, authorinitials, beginpage, + citation, citerefentry, citetitle, city, classname, code, command, + computeroutput, constant, country, database, email, envar, errorcode, + errorname, errortext, errortype, exceptionname, fax, filename, firstname, + firstterm, foreignphrase, function, glossterm, guibutton, guiicon, guilabel + , guimenu, guimenuitem, guisubmenu, hardware, honorific, interface, + interfacename, keycap, keycode, keysym, lineage, lineannotation, literal, + markup, medialabel, methodname, mousebutton, option, optional, otheraddr, + othername, package, parameter, personname, phone, pob, postcode, + productname, productnumber, prompt, property, quote, refentrytitle, remark, + replaceable, returnvalue, tag, shortcut, state, street, structfield, + structname, subscript, superscript, surname, symbol, systemitem, tag, + termdef, token, trademark, type, uri, userinput, varname, and wordasword + + ● Added support for chunking revhistory into separate file (similar to the + support for doing same with legalnotice). Patch from Thomas Schraitle. + Controlled through new generate.revhistory.link parameter. + + ● l10n.xsl: Made language codes RFC compliant. Added a new boolean config + parameter, l10n.lang.value.rfc.compliant. If it is non-zero (the default), + any underscore in a language code will be converted to a hyphen in HTML + output. If it is zero, the language code will be left as-is. + +man + +This release closes out 44 manpages stylesheet bug reports and feature +requests. It adds more than 35 new configuration parameters for controlling +aspects of man-page output -- including hyphenation and justification, handling +of links, conversion of Unicode characters, and contents of man-page headers +and footers. + + ● New options for globally disabling/enabling hyphenation and justification: + man.justify and man.hyphenate. + + Note that the default for the both of those is zero (off), because + justified text looks good only when it is also hyphenated; to quote the + “Hyphenation” node from the groff info page: + + Since the odds are not great for finding a set of words, for every + output line, which fit nicely on a line without inserting excessive + amounts of space between words, `gtroff' hyphenates words so that it + can justify lines without inserting too much space between words. + + The problem is that groff can end up hyphenating a lot of things that you + don't want hyphenated (variable names and command names, for example). + Keeping both justification and hyphenation disabled ensures that hyphens + won't get inserted where you don't want to them, and you don't end up with + lines containing excessive amounts of space between words. These default + settings run counter to how most existing man pages are formatted. But + there are some notable exceptions, such as the perl man pages. + + ● Added parameters for controlling hyphenation of computer inlines, + filenames, and URLs. By default, even when hyphenation is enabled + (globally), hyphenation is now suppressed for "computer inlines" + (currently, just classname, constant, envar, errorcode, option, replaceable + , userinput, type, and varname, and for filenames, and for URLs from link. + It can be (re)enabled using the man.hyphenate.computer.inlines, + man.hyphenate.filenames, and man.hyphenate.urls parameters. + + ● Implemented a new system for replacing Unicode characters. There are two + parts to the new system: a “string substitution map” for doing “essential” + replacements, and a “character map” that can optionally be disabled and + enabled. + + The new system fixes all open bugs that had to do with literal Unicode + numbered entities such as “ and ” showing up in output, and + greatly expands the ability of the stylesheets to generate “good” roff + equivalents for Unicode symbols and special characters. + + Here are some details... + + The previous manpages mechanism for replacing Unicode symbols and special + characters with roff equivalents (the replace-entities template) was not + scalable and not complete. The mechanism handled a somewhat arbitrary + selection of less than 20 or so Unicode characters. But there are + potentially more than 800 Unicode special characters that have some groff + equivalent they can be mapped to. And there are about 34 symbols in the + Latin-1 (ISO-8859-1) block alone. Users might reasonably expect that if + they include any of those Latin-1 characters in their DocBook source + documents, they will get correctly converted to known roff equivalents in + output. + + In addition to those common symbols, certain users may have a need to use + symbols from other Unicode blocks. Say, somebody who is documenting an + application related to math might need to use a bunch of symbols from the + “Mathematical Operators” Unicode block (there are about 65 characters in + that block that have reasonable roff equivalents). Or somebody else might + really like Dingbats -- such as the checkmark character -- and so might use + a bunch of things from the “Dingbat” block (141 characters in that that + have roff equivalents or that can at least be “degraded” somewhat + gracefully into roff). + + So, the old replace-entities mechanism was replaced with a completely + different mechanism that is based on use of two “maps”: a “substitution + map” and a “character map” (the latter in a format compliant with the XSLT + 2.0 spec and therefore completely “forward compatible” with XSLT 2.0). + + The substitution map is controlled through the man.string.subst.map + parameter, and is used to replace things like the backslash character + (which needs special handling to prevent it from being interpreted as a + roff escape). The substitution map cannot be disabled, because disabling it + will cause the output to be broken. However, you can add to it and change + it if needed. + + The “character map” mechanism, on the other hand, can be completely + disabled. It is enabled by default, and, by default, does replacement of + all Latin-1 symbols, along with most special spaces, dashes, and quotes + (about 75 characters by default). Also, you can optionally enable a “full” + character map that provides support for converting all 800 or so of the + characters that have some reasonable groff equivalent. + + The character-map mechanism is controlled through the following parameters: + + man.charmap.enabled + + turns character-map support on/off + + man.charmap.use.subset + + specifies that a subset of the character map is used instead of the + full map + + man.charmap.subset.profile + + specifies profile of character-map subset + + man.charmap.uri + + specifies an alternate character map to use instead of the “standard” + character map provided in the distribution + + ● Implemented out-of-line handling of display of URLs for links (currently, + only for ulink). This gives you three choices for handling of links: + + 1. Number and list links. Each link is numbered inline, with a number in + square brackets preceding the link contents, and a numbered list of all + links is added to the end of the document. + + 2. Only list links. Links are not numbered, but an (unnumbered) list of + links is added to the end of the document. + + 3. Suppress links. Don't number links and don't add any list of links to + the end of the document. + + You can also choose whether links should be underlined. The default is “the + works” -- list, number, and underline links. You can use the + man.links.list.enabled, man.links.are.numbered, and + man.links.are.underlined parameters to change the defaults. The default + heading for the link list is REFERENCES. You can be change that using the + man.links.list.heading parameter. + + ● Changed default output encoding to UTF-8. This does not mean that man pages + are output in raw UTF-8, because the character map is applied before final + output, causing all UTF-8 characters covered in the map to be converted to + roff equivalents. + + ● Added support for processing refsect3 and formalpara and nested refsection + elements, down to any arbitrary level of nesting. + + ● Output of the NAME and SYNOPSIS and AUTHOR headings and the headings for + admonitions (note, caution, etc.) are no longer hard-coded for English. + Instead, headings are generated for those in the correct locale (just as + the FO and HTML stylesheets do). + + ● Re-worked mechanism for assembling page headers/footers (the contents of + the .TH macro “title line”). + + Here are some details... + + All man pages contain a .TH roff macro whose contents are used for + rendering the “title line” displayed in the header and footer of each page. + Here are a couple of examples of real-world man pages that have useful page + headers/footers: + + gtk-options(7) GTK+ User's Manual gtk-options(7) <-- header + GTK+ 1.2 2003-10-20 gtk-options(7) <-- footer + + svgalib(7) Svgalib User Manual svgalib(7) <-- header + Svgalib 1.4.1 16 December 1999 svgalib(7) <-- footer + + And here are the terms with which the groff_man(7) man page refers to the + various parts of the header/footer: + + title(section) extra3 title(section) <- header + extra2 extra1 title(section) <- footer + + Or, using the names with which the man(7) man page refers to those same + fields: + + title(section) manual title(section) <- page header + source date title(section) <- page footer + + The easiest way to control the contents of those fields is to mark up your + refentry content like the following (note that this is a “minimal” + example). + + <refentry> + <info> + <date>2003-10-20</date> 1 + </info> + <refmeta> + <refentrytitle>gtk-options</refentrytitle> 2 + <manvolnum>7</manvolnum> 3 + <refmiscinfo class="source-name">GTK+</refmiscinfo> 4 + <refmiscinfo class="version">1.2</refmiscinfo> 5 + <refmiscinfo class="manual">GTK+ User's Manual</refmiscinfo> 6 + </refmeta> + <refnamediv> + <refname>gtk-options</refname> + <refpurpose>Standard Command Line Options for GTK+ Programs</refpurpose> + </refnamediv> + <refsect1> + <title>Description</title> + <para>This manual page describes the command line options, which + are common to all GTK+ based applications.</para> + </refsect1> + </refentry> + + 1 Sets the “date” part of the header/footer. + + 2 Sets the “title” part. + + 3 Sets the “section” part. + + 4 Sets the “source name” part. + + 5 Sets the “version” part. + + 6 Sets the “manual” part. + + Below are explanations of the steps the stylesheets take to attempt to + assemble and display “good” headers and footer. [In the descriptions, note + that *info is the refentry “info” child (whatever its name), and parentinfo + is the “info” child of its parent (again, whatever its name).] + + extra1 field (date) + + Content of the “extra1” field is what shows up in the center footer + position of each page. The man(7) man page describes it as “the date of + the last revision”. + + To provide this content, if the refentry.date.profile.enabled is + non-zero, the stylesheets check the value of refentry.date.profile. + + Otherwise, by default, they check for a date or pubdate not only in the + *info contents, but also in the parentinfo contents. + + If a date cannot be found, the stylesheets now automatically generate a + localized “long format” date, ensuring that this field always has + content in output. + + However, if for some reason you want to suppress this field, you can do + so by setting a non-zero value for man.th.extra1.suppress. + + extra2 field (source) + + On Linux systems and on systems with a modern groff, the content of the + “extra2” field are what shows up in the left footer position of each + page. + + The man(7) man page describes this as “the source of the command”, and + provides the following examples: + + ○ For binaries, use somwething like: GNU, NET-2, SLS Distribution, + MCC Distribution. + + ○ For system calls, use the version of the kernel that you are + currently looking at: Linux 0.99.11. + + ○ For library calls, use the source of the function: GNU, BSD 4.3, + Linux DLL 4.4.1. + + In practice, there are many pages that simply have a version number in + the “source” field. So, it looks like what we have is a two-part field, + Name Version, where: + + Name + + product name (e.g., BSD) or org. name (e.g., GNU) + + Version + + version name + + Each part is optional. If the Name is a product name, then the Version + is probably the version of the product. Or there may be no Name, in + which case, if there is a Version, it is probably the version of the + item itself, not the product it is part of. Or, if the Name is an + organization name, then there probably will be no Version. + + To provide this content, if the refentry.source.name.profile.enabled + and refentry.version.profile.enabled parameter are non-zero, the + stylesheets check the value of refentry.source.name.profile + refentry.version.profile. + + Otherwise, by default, they check the following places, in the + following order: + + 1. *info/productnumber + + 2. *info/productnumber + + 3. refmeta/refmiscinfo[@class = 'version'] + + 4. parentinfo/productnumber + + 5. *info/productname + + 6. parentinfo/productname + + 7. refmeta/refmiscinfo + + 8. [nothing found, so leave it empty] + + extra3 field + + On Linux systems and on systems with a modern groff, the content of the + “extra3” field are what shows up in the center header position of each + page. Some man pages have “extra2” content, some don't. If a particular + man page has it, it is most often “context” data about some larger + system the documented item belongs to (for example, the name or + description of a group of related applications). The stylesheets now + check the following places, in the following order, to look for content + to add to the “extra3” field. + + 1. parentinfo/title + + 2. parent's title + + 3. refmeta/refmiscinfo + + 4. [nothing found, so leave it empty] + + ● Reworked *info gathering. For each refentry found, the stylesheets now + cache its *info content, then check for any valid parent of it that might + have metainfo content and cache that, if found; they then then do all + further matches against those node-sets (rather than re-selecting the + original *info nodes each time they are needed). + + ● New option for breaking strings after forward slashes. This enables long + URLs and pathnames to be broken across lines. Controlled through + man.break.after.slash parameter. + + ● Output for servicemark and trademark are now (SM) and (TM). There is a + groff "\(tm" escape, but output from that is not acceptable. + + ● New option for controlling the length of the title part of the .TH title + line. Controlled through the man.th.title.max.length parameter. + + ● New option for specifying output encoding of each man page; controlled with + man.output.encoding (similar to the HTML chunker.output.encoding + parameter). + + ● New option for suppressing filename messages when generating output; + controlled with man.output.quietly (similar to the HTML chunk.quietly + parameter). + + ● The text of cross-references to first-level refentry (refsect1, top-level + refsection, refnamediv, and refsynopsisdiv) are now capitalized. + + ● Cross-references to refnamediv now use the localized NAME title instead of + using the first refname child. This makes the output inconsistent with HTML + and FO output, but for man-page output, it seems to make better sense to + have the NAME. (It may actually make better sense to do it that way in HTML + and FO output as well...) + + ● Added support for processing funcparams. + + ● Removed the space that was being output between funcdef and paramdef; + example: was: float rand (void); now: float rand(void) + + ● Turned off bold formatting for the type element when it occurs within a + funcdef or paramdef + + ● Corrected rendering of simplelist. Any <simplelist type="inline" instance + is now rendered as a comma-separated list (also with an optional localized + “and” or “or” before the last item -- see description elsewhere in these + release notes). Any simplelist instance whose type is not inline is + rendered as a one-column vertical list (ignoring the values of the type and + columns attributes if present) + + ● Comment added at top of roff source for each page now includes DocBook XSL + stylesheets version number (as in the HTML stylesheets) + + ● Made change to prevent “sticky” fonts changes. Now, when the manpages + stylesheets encounter node sets that need to be boldfaced or italicized, + they put the \fBfoo\fR and \fIbar\fR groff bold/italic instructions + separately around each node in the set. + + ● synop.xsl: Boldface everything in funcsynopsis output except parameters + (which are in ital). The man(7) man page says: + + For functions, the arguments are always specified using italics, even + in the SYNOPSIS section, where the rest of the function is specified in + bold. + + A look through the contents of the man/man2 directory shows that most (all) + existing pages do follow this “everything in funcsynopsis bold” rule. That + means the type content and any punctuation (parens, semicolons, varargs) + also must be bolded. + + ● Removed code for adding backslashes before periods/dots in roff source, + because backslashes in front of periods/dots in roff source are needed only + in the very rare case where a period is the very first character in a line, + without any space in front of it. A better way to deal with that rare case + is for you to add a zero-width space in front of the offending dot(s) in + your source + + ● Removed special handling of the quote element. That was hard-coded to cause + anything marked up with the quote element to be output preceded by two + backticks and followed by two apostrophes -- that is, that old-school + kludge for generating “curly” quotes in Emacs and in X-Windows fonts. While + Emacs still seems to support that, I don't think X-Windows has for a long + time now. And, anyway, it looks (and has always looked) like crap when + viewed on a normal tty/console. In addition, it breaks localiztion of quote + . By default, quote content is output with localized quotation marks, + which, depending on the locale, may or may not be left and right double + quotation marks. + + ● Changed mappings for left and right single quotation marks. Those had + previously been incorrectly mapped to the backtick (`) and apostrophe + (&39;) characters (for kludgy reasons -- see above). They are now correctly + mapped to the \(oq and \(cq roff escapes. If you want the old (broken) + behavior, you need to manually change the mappings for those in the value + of the man.string.subst.map parameter. + + ● Removed xref.xsl file. Now, of the various cross-reference elements, only + the ulink element is handled differently; the rest are handled exactly as + the HTML stylesheets handle them, except that no hypertext links are + generated. (Because there is no equivalent hypertext mechanism is man + pages.) + + ● New option for making “subheading dividers” in generated roff source. The + dividers are not visible in the rendered man page; they are just there to + make the source readable. Controlled using man.subheading.divider. + + ● Fixed many places where too much space was being added between lines. + +Release 1.68.1 + +The release adds localization support for Farsi (thanks to Sina Heshmati) and +improved support for the XLink-based DocBook NG db:link element. Other than +that, it is a minor bug-fix update to the 1.68.0 release. The main thing it +fixes is a build error that caused the XSLT Java extensions to be jarred up +with the wrong package structure. Thanks to Jens Stavnstrup for quickly +reporting the problem, and to Mauritz Jeanson for investigating and finding the +cause. + +Release 1.68.0 + +This release includes some features changes, particularly for FO/PDF output, +and a number of bug fixes. + +FO + + ● Moved footnote properties to attribute-sets. + + ● Added support for side floats, margin notes, and custom floats. + + ● Added new parameters body.start.indent and body.end.indent to the + set.flow.properties template. + + ● Added support for xml:id + + ● Added support for refdescriptor. + + ● Added support for multiple refnamedivs. + + ● Added index.entry.properties attribute-set to support customization of + index entries. + + ● Added set.flow.properties template call to each fo:flow to support + customizations entry point. + + ● Add support for @floatstyle in figure + + ● Moved hardcoded properties for index division titles to the + index.div.title.properties attribute-set. + + ● Added support for table-layout="auto" for XEP. + + ● Added index.div.title.properties attribute-set. + + ● $verbose parameter is now passed to most elements. + + ● Added refentry to toc in part, as it is permitted by the DocBook schema/ + DTD. + + ● Added backmatter elements and article to toc in part, since they are + permitted by the DocBook schema/DTD. + + ● Added mode="toc" for simplesect, since it is now permitted in the toc if + simplesect.in.toc is set. + + ● Moved hard-coded properties to nongraphical.admonintion.properties and + graphical.admonition.properties attribute sets. + + ● Added support for sidebar-width and float-type processing instructions in + sidebar. + + ● For tables with HTML markup elements, added support for dbfo bgcolor PI, + the attribute-sets named table.properties, informaltable.properties, + table.table.properties, and table.cell.padding. Also added support for the + templates named table.cell.properties and table.cell.block.properties so + that tabstyles can be implemented. Also added support for tables containing + only tr instead of tbody with tr. + + ● Added new paramater hyphenate.verbatim.characters which can specify + characters after which a line break can occur in verbatim environments. + This parameter can be used to extend the initial set of characters which + contain only space and non-breakable space. + + ● Added itemizedlist.label.markup to enable selection of different bullet + symbol. Also added several potential bullet characters, commented out by + default. + + ● Enabled all id's in XEP output for external olinking. + +HTML + + ● Added support for refdescriptor. + + ● Added support for multiple refnamedivs. + + ● Added support for xml:id + + ● refsynopsisdiv as a section for counting section levels + +Images + + ● Added new SVG admonition graphics and navigation images. + +Release 1.67.2 + +This release fixes a table bug introduced in the 1.67.1 release. + +Release 1.67.1 + +This release includes a number of bug fixes. + +The following lists provide details about API and feature changes. + +FO + + ● Tables: Inherited cell properties are now passed to the + table.cell.properties template so they can be overridden by a + customization. + + ● Tables: Added support for bgcolor PI on table row element. + + ● TOCs: Added new parameter simplesect.in.toc; default value of 0 causes + simplesect to be omitted from TOCs; to cause simplesect to be included in + TOCs, you must set the value of simplesect.in.toc to 1.Comment from Norm: + + Simplesect elements aren't supposed to appear in the ToC at all... The + use case for simplesect is when, for example, every chapter in a book + ends with "Exercises" or "For More Information" sections and you don't + want those to appear in the ToC. + + ● Sections: Reverted change that caused a variable reference to be used in a + template match and rewrote code to preserve intended semantics. + + ● Lists: Added workaround to prevent "* 0.60 + 1em" garbage in list output + from PassiveTeX + + ● Moved the literal attributes from component.title to the + component.title.properties attribute-set so they can be customized. + + ● Lists: Added glossdef's first para to special handling in + fo:list-item-body. + +HTML + + ● TOCs: Added new parameter simplesect.in.toc; for details, see the list of + FO changes for this release. + + ● Indexing: Added new parameter index.prefer.titleabbrev; when set to 1, + index references will use titleabbrev instead of title when available. + +HTML Help + + ● Added support for generating windows-1252-encoded output using Saxon; for + more details, see the list of XSL Java extensions changes for this release. + +man pages + + ● Replaced named/numeric character-entity references for non-breaking space + with groff equivalent (backslash-tilde). + +XSL Java extensions + + ● Saxon extensions: Added the Windows1252 class. It extends Saxon 6.5.x with + the windows-1252 character set, which is particularly useful when + generating HTML Help for Western European Languages (code from Pontus + Haglund and contributed to the DocBook community by Sectra AB, Sweden). + + To use: + + 1. Make sure that the Saxon 6.5.x jar file and the jar file for the + DocBook XSL Java extensions are in your CLASSPATH + + 2. Create a DocBook XSL customization layer -- a file named + mystylesheet.xsl or whatever -- that, at a minimum, contains the + following: + + <xsl:stylesheet + xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" + version='1.0'> + <xsl:import href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/htmlhelp/htmlhelp.xsl"/> + <xsl:output method="html" encoding="WINDOWS-1252" indent="no"/> + <xsl:param name="htmlhelp.encoding" select="'WINDOWS-1252'"></xsl:param> + <xsl:param name="chunker.output.encoding" select="'WINDOWS-1252'"></xsl:param> + <xsl:param name="saxon.character.representation" select="'native'"></xsl:param> + </xsl:stylesheet> + + Invoke Saxon with the encoding.windows-1252 Java system property set to + com.nwalsh.saxon.Windows1252; for example + + java \ + -Dencoding.windows-1252=com.nwalsh.saxon.Windows1252 \ + com.icl.saxon.StyleSheet \ + mydoc.xml mystylesheet.xsl + + Or, for a more complete "real world" case showing other options you'll + typically want to use: + + java \ + -Dencoding.windows-1252=com.nwalsh.saxon.Windows1252 \ + -Djavax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory=org.apache.xerces.jaxp.DocumentBuilderFactoryImpl \ + -Djavax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory=org.apache.xerces.jaxp.SAXParserFactoryImpl \ + -Djavax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory=com.icl.saxon.TransformerFactoryImpl \ + com.icl.saxon.StyleSheet \ + -x org.apache.xml.resolver.tools.ResolvingXMLReader \ + -y org.apache.xml.resolver.tools.ResolvingXMLReader \ + -r org.apache.xml.resolver.tools.CatalogResolver \ + mydoc.xml mystylesheet.xsl + + In both cases, the "mystylesheet.xsl" file should be a DocBook + customization layer containing the parameters show in step 2. + + ● Saxon extensions: Removed Saxon 8 extensions from release package + +Release 1.67.0 + + ● A number of important bug fixes. + + ● Added Saxon8 extensions + + ● Enabled dbfo table-width on entrytbl in FO output + + ● Added support for role=strong on emphasis in FO output + + ● Added new FO parameter hyphenate.verbatim that can be used to turn on + "intelligent" wrapping of verbatim environments. + + ● Replaced all <tt></tt> output with <code></code> + + ● Changed admon.graphic.width template to a mode so that different + admonitions can have different graphical widths. + + ● Deprecated the HTML shade.verbatim parameter (use CSS instead) + + ● Wrapped ToC refentrytitle/refname and refpurpose in span with class values. + This makes it possible to style them using a CSS stylesheet. + + ● Use strong/em instead of b/i in HTML output + + ● Added support for converting Emphasis to groff italic and Emphasis role= + 'bold' to bold. Controlled by emphasis.propagates.style param, but not + documented yet using litprog system. Will do that next (planning to add + some other parameter-controllable options for hyphenation and handling of + line spacing). + + ● callout.graphics.number.limit.xml param: Changed the default from 10 to 15. + + ● verbatim.properties: Added hyphenate=false + + ● Saxon and Xalan Text.java extensions: Added support for URIResolver() on + insertfile href's + + ● Added generated RELEASE-NOTES.txt file. + + ● Added INSTALL file (executable file for generating catalog.xml) + + ● Removed obsolete tools directory from package + +Release 1.66.1 + + ● A number of important bug fixes. + + ● Now xml:base attributes that are generated by an XInclude processor are + resolved for image files. + + ● Rewrote olink templates to support several new features. + + ○ Extended full olink support to FO output. + + ○ Add support for xrefstyle attribute in olinks. + + ○ New parameters to support new olink features: insert.olink.page.number, + insert.olink.pdf.frag, olink.debug, olink.lang.fallback.sequence, + olink.properties, prefer.internal.olink. See the reference page for + each parameter for more information. + + ● Added index.on.type parameter for new type attribute introduced in DocBook + 4.3 for indexterms and index. This allows you to create multiple indices + containing different categories of entries. For users of 4.2 and earlier, + you can use the new parameter index.on.role instead. + + ● Added new section.autolabel.max.depth parameter to turn off section + numbering below a certain depth. This permits you to number major section + levels and leave minor section levels unnumbered. + + ● Added footnote.sep.leader.properties attribute set to format the line + separating footnotes in printed output. + + ● Added parameter img.src.path as a prefix to HTML img src attributes. The + prefix is added to whatever path is already generated by the stylesheet for + each image file. + + ● Added new attribute-sets informalequation.properties, + informalexample.properties, informalfigure.properties, and + informaltable.properties, so each such element type can be formatted + individually if needed. + + ● Add component.label.includes.part.label parameter to add any part number to + chapter, appendix and other component labels when the label.from.part + parameter is nonzero. This permits you to distinguish multiple chapters + with the same chapter number in cross references and the TOC. + + ● Added chunk.separate.lots parameter for HTML output. This parameter lets + you generate separate chunk files for each LOT (list of tables, list of + figures, etc.). + + ● Added several table features: + + ○ Added table.table.properties attribute set to add properties to the + fo:table element. + + ○ Added placeholder templates named table.cell.properties and + table.cell.block.properties to enable adding properties to any + fo:table-cell or the cell's fo:block, respectively. These templates are + a start for implementing table styles. + + ● Added new attribute set component.title.properties for easy modifications + of component's title formatting in FO output. + + ● Added Saxon support for an encoding attribute on the textdata element. + Added new parameter textdata.default.encoding which specifies encoding when + encoding attribute on textdata is missing. + + ● Template label.this.section now controls whole section label, not only + sub-label which corresponds to particular label. Former behaviour was IMHO + bug as it was not usable. + + ● Formatting in titleabbrev for TOC and headers is preserved when there are + no hotlink elements in the title. Formerly the title showed only the text + of the title, no font changes or other markup. + + ● Added intial.page.number template to set the initial-page-number property + for page sequences in print output. Customizing this template lets you + change when page numbering restarts. This is similar to the + format.page.number template that lets you change how the page number + formatting changes in the output. + + ● Added force.page.count template to set the force-page-count property for + page sequences in print output. This is similar to the format.page.number + template. + + ● Sort language for localized index sorting in autoidx-ng.xsl is now taken + from document lang, not from system environment. + + ● Numbering and formatting of normal and ulink footnotes (if turned on) has + been unified. Now ulink footnotes are mixed in with any other footnotes. + + ● Added support for renderas attribute in section and sect1 et al. This + permits you to render a given section title as if it were a different + level. + + ● Added support for label attribute in footnote to manually supply the + footnote mark. + + ● Added support for DocBook 4.3 corpcredit element. + + ● Added support for a dbfo keep-together PI for formal objects (table, + figure, example, equation, programlisting). That permits a formal object to + be kept together if it is not already, or to be broken if it is very long + and the default keep-together is not appropriate. + + ● For graphics files, made file extension matching case insensitive, and + updated the list of graphics extensions. + + ● Allow calloutlist to have block content before the first callout + + ● Added dbfo-need processing instruction to provide soft page breaks. + + ● Added implementation of existing but unused default.image.width parameter + for graphics. + + ● Support DocBook NG tag inline element. + + ● It appears that XEP now supports Unicode characters in bookmarks. There is + no further need to strip accents from characters. + + ● Make segmentedlist HTML markup more semantic and available to CSS styles. + + ● Added user.preroot placeholder template to permit xsl-stylesheet and other + PIs and comments to be output before the HTML root element. + + ● Non-chunked legalnotice now gets an <a name="id"> element in HTML output so + it can be referenced with xref or link. + + ● In chunked HTML output, changed link rel="home" to rel="start", and link + rel="previous" to rel="prev", per W3C HTML 4.01 spec. + + ● Added several patches to htmlhelp from W. Borgert + + ● Added Bosnian locale file as common/bs.xml. + +Release 1.65.0 + + ● A number of important bug fixes. + + ● Added a workaround to allow these stylesheets to process DocBook NG + documents. (It’s a hack that pre-processes the document to strip off the + namespace and then uses exsl:node-set to process the result.) + + ● Added alternative indexing mechanism which has better internationalization + support. New indexing method allows grouping of accented letters like e, é, + ë into the same group under letter "e". It can also treat special letters + (e.g. "ch") as one character and place them in the correct position (e.g. + between "h" and "i" in Czech language). + + In order to use this mechanism you must create customization layer which + imports some base stylesheet (like fo/docbook.xsl, html/chunk.xsl) and then + includes appropriate stylesheet with new indexing code (fo/autoidx-ng.xsl + or html/autoidx-ng.xsl). For example: + + <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" + version="1.0"> + + <xsl:import href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/fo/docbook.xsl"/> + <xsl:include href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/fo/autoidx-ng.xsl"/> + + </xsl:stylesheet> + + New method is known to work with Saxon and it should also work with + xsltproc 1.1.1 and later. Currently supported languages are English, Czech, + German, French, Spanish and Danish. + +Release 1.64.1 + +General bug fixes and improvements. Sorry about the failure to produce an +updated release notes file for 1.62.0—1.63.2 + + ● In the course of fixing bug #849787, wrapping Unicode callouts with an + appropriate font change in the Xalan extensions, I discovered that the + Xalan APIs have changed a bit. So xalan2.jar will work with older Xalan 2 + implementations, xalan25.jar works with Xalan 2.5. + +Release 1.61.0 + +Lots of bug fixes and improvements. + + ● Initial support for timestamp PI. From now you can use <?dbtimestamp format + ="Y-m-d H:M:S"?> to get current datetime in your document. Added + localization support for datetime PI + + ● Added level 6 to test for section depth in section.level template so that + section.title.level6.properties will be used for sections that are 6 deep + or deeper. This should also cause a h6 to be created in html output. + + ● Don't use SVG graphics if use.svg=0 + + ● Now uses number-and-title-template for sections only if section.autolabel + is not zero. + + ● Added missing 'english-language-name' attribute to the l10n element, and + the missing 'style' attribute to the template element so the current + gentext documents will validate. + + ● Corrected several references to parameter qanda.defaultlabel that were + missing the "$". + + ● Now accepts admon.textlabel parameter to turn off Note, Warning, etc. + label. + + ● FeatReq #684561: support more XEP metadata + + ● Added hyphenation support. Added support for coref. Added beginpage + support. (does nothing; see TDG). + + ● Added support for hyphenation-character, hyphenation-push-character-count, + and hyphenation-remain-character-count + + ● Added root.properties, ebnf.assignment, and ebnf.statement.terminator + + ● Support bgcolor PI in table cells; make sure rowsep and colsep don't have + any effect on the last row or column + + ● Handle othercredit on titlepage a little better + + ● Applied fix from Jeff Beal that fixed the bug that put secondary page + numbers on primary entries. Same with tertiary page numbers on secondary + entries. + + ● Added definition of missing variable collection. + + ● Make footnote formatting 'normal' even when it occurs in a context that has + special formatting + + ● Added warning when glossary.collection is not blank, but it cannot open the + specified file. + + ● Pick up the frame attribute on table and informaltable. + + ● indexdiv/title in non-autogenerated indexes are now picked up. + + ● Removed (unused) component.title.properties + + ● Move IDs from page-sequences down to titlepage blocks + + ● Use proportional-column-width(1) on more tables. + + Use proportional-column-width() for header/footer tables; suppress + relative-align when when using FOP + + ● Check for glossterm.auto.link when linking firstterms; don't output gl. + prefix on glossterm links + + ● Generate Part ToCs + + ● Support glossary, bibliography, and index in component ToCs. + + ● Refactored chunking code so that customization of chunk algorithm and chunk + elements is more practical + + ● Support textobject/phrase on inlinemediaobject. + + ● Support 'start' PI on ordered lists + + ● Fixed test of $toc PI to turn on qandaset TOC. + + ● Added process.chunk.footnotes to sect2 through 5 to fix bug of missing + footnotes when chunk level greater than 1. + + ● Added paramater toc.max.depth which controls maximal depth of ToC as + requested by PHP-DOC group. + + ● Exempted titleabbrev from preamble processing in lists, and fixed + variablelist preamble code to use the same syntax as the other lists. + + ● Added support for elements between variablelist and first varlistentry + since DocBook 4.2 supports that now. + +Release 1.60.1 + +Lots of bug fixes. + + ● The format of the titlepage.templates.xml files and the stylesheet that + transforms them have been significantly changed. All of the attributes used + to control the templates are now namespace qualified. So what used to be: + + <t:titlepage element="article" wrapper="fo:block"> + + is now: + + <t:titlepage t:element="article" t:wrapper="fo:block"> + + Attributes from other namespaces (including those that are unqualified) are + now copied directly through. In practice, this means that the names that + used to be “fo:” qualified: + + <title named-template="component.title" + param:node="ancestor-or-self::article[1]" + fo:text-align="center" + fo:keep-with-next="always" + fo:font-size="&hsize5;" + fo:font-weight="bold" + fo:font-family="{$title.font.family}"/> + + are now unqualified: + + <title t:named-template="component.title" + param:node="ancestor-or-self::article[1]" + text-align="center" + keep-with-next="always" + font-size="&hsize5;" + font-weight="bold" + font-family="{$title.font.family}"/> + + The t:titlepage and t:titlepage-content elements both generate wrappers + now. And unqualified attributes on those elements are passed through. This + means that you can now make the title font apply to ane entire titlepage + and make the entire “recto” titlepage centered by specifying the font and + alignment on the those elements: + + <t:titlepage t:element="article" t:wrapper="fo:block" + font-family="{$title.font.family}"> + + <t:titlepage-content t:side="recto" + text-align="center"> + + ● Support use of titleabbrev in running headers and footers. + + ● Added (experimental) xref.with.number.and.title parameter to enable number/ + title cross references even when the default would be just the number. + + ● Generate part ToCs if they're requested. + + ● Use proportional-column-width() in header/footer tables. + + ● Handle alignment correctly when screenshot wraps a graphic in a figure. + + ● Format chapter and appendix cross references consistently. + + ● Attempt to support tables with multiple tgroups in FO. + + ● Output fo:table-columns in simplelist tables. + + ● Use titlepage.templates.xml for indexdiv and glossdiv formatting. + + ● Improve support for new bibliography elements. + + ● Added footnote.number.format, table.footnote.number.format, + footnote.number.symbols, and table.footnote.number.symbols for better + control of footnote markers. + + ● Added glossentry.show.acronyms. + + ● Suppress the draft-mode page masters when draft-mode is “no”. + + ● Make blank pages verso not recto. D'Oh! + + ● Improved formatting of ulink footnotes. + + ● Fixed bugs in graphic width/height calculations. + + ● Added class attributes to inline elements. + + ● Don't add “.html” to the filenames identified with the “dbhtml” PI. + + ● Don't force a ToC when sections contain refentrys. + + ● Make section title sizes a function of the body.master.size. + +Release 1.59.2 + +The 1.59.2 fixes an FO bug in the page masters that causes FOP to fail. + + ● Removed the region-name from the region-body of blank pages. There's no + reason to give the body of blank pages a unique name and doing so causes a + mismatch that FOP detects. + + ● Output IDs for the first paragraphs in listitems. + + ● Fixed some small bugs in the handling of page numbers in double-sided mode. + + ● Attempt to prevent duplicated IDs from being produced when endterm on xref + points to something with nested structure. + + ● Fix aligment problems in equations. + + ● Output the type attribute on unordered lists (UL) in HTML only if the + css.decoration parameter is true. + + ● Calculate the font size in formal.title.properties so that it's 1.2 times + the base font size, not a fixed "12pt". + +Release 1.59.1 + +The 1.59.1 fixes a few bugs. + + ● Added Bulgarian localization. + + ● Indexing improvements; localize book indexes to books but allow setindex to + index an entire set. + + ● The default value for rowsep and colsep is now "1" as per CALS. + + ● Added support for titleabbrev (use them for cross references). + + ● Improvements to mediaobject for selecting print vs. online images. + + ● Added seperate property sets for figures, examples, equations, tabless, and + procedures. + + ● Make lineannotations italic. + + ● Support xrefstyle attribute. + + ● Make endterm on xref higher priority than xreflabel target. + + ● Glossary formatting improvements. + +Release 1.58.0 + +The 1.58.0 adds some initial support for extensions in xsltproc, adds a few +features, and fixes bugs. + + ● This release contains the first attempt at extension support for xsltproc. + The only extension available to date is the one that adjusts table column + widths. Run extensions/xsltproc/python/xslt.py. + + ● Fixed bugs in calculation of adjusted column widths to correct for rounding + errors. + + ● Support nested refsection elements correctly. + + ● Reworked gentext.template to take context into consideration. The name of + elements in localization files is now an xpath-like context list, not just + a simple name. + + ● Made some improvements to bibliography formatting. + + ● Improved graphical formatting of admonitions. + + ● Added support for entrytbl. + + ● Support spanning index terms. + + ● Support bibliosource. + +Release 1.57.0 + + ● The 1.57.0 release wasn't documented here. Oops. + +Release 1.56.0 + +The 1.56.0 release fixes bugs. + + ● Reworked chunking. This will break all existing customizations layers that + change the chunking algorithm. If you're customizing chunking, look at the + new “content” parameter that's passed to process-chunk-element and friends. + + ● Support continued and inherited numeration in orderedlist formatting for + FOs. + + ● Added Thai localization. + + ● Tweaked stylesheet documentation stylesheets to link to TDG and the + parameter references. + + ● Allow title on tables of contents ("Table of Contents") to be optional. + Added new keyword to generate.toc. Support tables of contents on sections. + + ● Made separate parameters for table borders and table cell borders: + table.frame.border.color, table.frame.border.style, + table.frame.border.thickness, table.cell.border.color, + table.cell.border.style, and table.cell.border.thickness. + + ● Suppress formatting of “endofrange” indexterms. This is only half-right. + They should generate a range, but I haven't figured out how to do that yet. + + ● Support revdescription. (Bug #582192) + + ● Added default.float.class and fixed figure floats. (Bug #497603) + + ● Fixed formatting of sbr in FOs. + + ● Added context to the “missing template” error message. + + ● Process arg correctly in a group. (Bug #605150) + + ● Removed 'keep-with-next' from formal.title.properties attribute set now + that the stylesheets support the option of putting such titles below the + object. Now the $placement value determines if 'keep-with-next' or + 'keep-with-previous' is used in the title block. + + ● Wrap “url()” around external-destinations when appropriate. + + ● Fixed typo in compact list spacing. (Bug #615464) + + ● Removed spurious hash in anchor name. (Bug #617717) + + ● Address is now displayed verbatim on title pages. (Bug #618600) + + ● The bridgehead.in.toc parameter is now properly supported. + + ● Improved effectiveness of HTML cleanup by increasing the number of places + where it is used. Improve use of HTML cleanup in XHTML stylesheets. + + ● Support table of contents for appendix in article. (Bug #596599) + + ● Don't duplicate footnotes in bibliographys and glossarys. (Bug #583282) + + ● Added default.image.width. (Bug #516859) + + ● Totally reworked funcsynopsis code; it now supports a 'tabular' + presentation style for 'wide' prototypes; see + funcsynopsis.tabular.threshold. (HTML only right now, I think, FO support, + uh, real soon now.) + + ● Reworked support for difference marking; toned down the colors a bit and + added a “system.head.content” template so that the diff CSS wasn't + overriding “user.head.content”. (Bug #610660) + + ● Added call to the “*.head.content” elements when writing out long + description chunks. + + ● Make sure legalnotice link is correct even when chunking to a different + base.dir. + + ● Use CSS to set viewport characteristics if css.decoration is non-zero, use + div instead of p for making graphic a block element; make figure titles the + default alt text for images in a figure. + + ● Added space-after to list.block.spacing. + + ● Reworked section.level template to give “correct” answer instead of being + off by one. + + ● When processing tables, use the tabstyle attribute as the division class. + + ● Fixed bug in html2xhtml.xsl that was causing the XHTML chunker to output + HTML instead of XHTML. + +Older releases + +To view the release notes for older releases, see http://cvs.sourceforge.net/ +viewcvs.py/docbook/xsl/RELEASE-NOTES.xml. Be aware that there were no release +notes for releases prior to the 1.50.0 release. + +About dot-zero releases + +DocBook Project “dot zero” releases should be considered experimental and are +always followed by stable “dot one plus” releases, usually within two or three +weeks. Please help to ensure the stability of “dot one plus” releases by +carefully testing each “dot zero” release and reporting back about any problems +you find. + +It is not recommended that you use a “dot zero” release in a production system. +Instead, you should wait for the “dot one” or greater versions. + |
