Sounds okay to me. > There is also an issue that the url is less than informative for the pdf > version of the book where the url will also be printed in parentheses. > In that case, the &lfs-root; entity should be changed to > "http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/stable"; I'm not sure I understand what is wrong with the PDF output. How does this differ from HTML output? They both are simply a link that you click on with your mouse. If you're reading *either* from hard-copy, you can't determine what the link is (using your method proposed above). Why does PDF need to be different? I suppose I don't understand what you are trying to propose for the PDF links (or why they must be different than the HTML). -- Randy rmlscsi: [bogomips 1003.26] [GNU ld version 2.16.1] [gcc (GCC) 4.0.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.6] [Linux 2.6.14.3 i686] 11:35:01 up 11 days, 11:49, 1 user, load average: 0.35, 0.22, 0.45 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
