 - When explaining a term, please add an indexterm
 indexterm
 primaryResolution/primary
 /indexterm
This will automatcally appear in the index chapter: last line in
 the html summary.


 I've been meaning to ask about this: There were 7 terms in concepts.xml
 but only one of them, channels, had an indexterm. So if I understand
 correctly, the reason is that those other terms are explained at length
 elsewhere, and THOSE places are linked to in the index, while there is
 no other reference to resolution in the help?


That is docbook rules: there is no varlistentry parent for indexterm but 
there is title. In varlistentry you must include indexterm within term 
tags.
Please see   http://docbook.org/tdg/en/html/indexterm.html
There are some inconsistencies in the index. It has to be reviewed.

 I made these changes in your xml file. Do you want I push your changes?


 Sure.

Done

 Hi Michael,

 OK for substance.

 Some remarks about form:

 - TAB are set to 2 spaces.

 - Lines are less than 80 characters and spaces.


OK, figured out how to do those with Notepad++.

 - I noticed 2 typos: reslution and noticable. You probably have a
 spelling command in your editor.


Yup. I guess I'm so used to check-as-you-type spellcheckers I haven't
thought of runing a spell check.


  what
  is the significance of adding acronym and quote tags? what are they
  for? they seem to have no influence on the final output.
 

 For acronym, I don't know. But quote is important for
 internationalization. With quoteHello/quote, I automatically get the
 French quotes in French html (« Hello ») with indivisible spaces!

 I made these changes in your xml file. Do you want I push your changes?


Sure.

 BTW: For some reasons the guote tag does not work in Norwegian.
 quoteHello/quote is written as Hello instead of «Hello». (We
 are using the same quotes as in French).

This is a DocBook bug, IMHO. Try to change the quote chars manually 
(in /usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/nwalsh/1.75.2/common/nn.xml or 
wherever your language file is) to be sure.

Bye,

 what is the significance of adding acronym and quote tags?
 what are they for? they seem to have no influence on the final
 output.

quote tags are important to set the correct quotation chars.

acronym tags are used to convert the enclosed text to capital 
letters, AFAIK (I never did any tests), and add
acronym class=acronym.../acronym
to the HTML output, which may be used in CSS stylesheets.
So right now they are not really important -- it's good style and 
correct if you use them, but nothing happens if you forget it.

 Lastly, how important is the way these files are indented? I always
 use tabs, and any editor I'm familiar with uses tabs to indent
 lines, while these files seem to use spaces. Is is important to
 indent the XML in this way?

By convention we use two spaces. Mixing tabs and spaces will make the 
XML files less readable, especially if someone uses a different 
editor.

Bye,
Ulf

The Windows keyboard do not has the «» quote signs by default. Linux has.
I'll give your suggestion a try. Until now I have deleted the quote 
tag and entered the signs by hand in my translated po files. (Not in the 
original xml files).
Thank you, Ulf.
