Anyone interested?
Since no one has answered I'll take a shot... I'm pretty sure that no one has tried to generate CHM files from boost-book yet. Most of us are bogged down in making the basics work.... Jeff ps: I'm sure windows developers would love to this alternative output form -- and it is sort of the point of converting to boost-book to be able to do these sorts of things. So I applaud your effort if you have the time even though I personally don't have much need for it -- at least this month ;-) ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by: Beat the post-holiday blues Get a FREE limited edition SourceForge.net t-shirt from ThinkGeek.
