Hi list I know the TEI set of DTD's is an exception to the rest of install path stuff, but would like to clarify a couple of things ..
(and we have got to do something about update-catalogs soon.. another thread perhaps) Note: This box is part of a tiny (2 -5 machine) network .. it varies :) I have the DTD's in a couple of places but for the purposes of discussion lets assume they are coming in via a deb package. I have a developer tool for Freedict (beta level) that produces the following header/prologue. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" lang ="en" standalone="no" ?> <!DOCTYPE TEI.2 PUBLIC "-//TEI Consortium//DTD TEI P4//EN" "http://www.tei-c. org/P4X/DTD/tei2.dtd" [ <!ENTITY % TEI.XML "INCLUDE" > <!ENTITY % TEI.dictionaries "INCLUDE" > ]> <!--this file auto generated on Fri Feb 6 16:18:27 2004 by dict2xml.py-0.1.3 <blah blah blah > Note: must remove that lang='en" attribute .. Notes: I have used a URI for the system id and the Public ID is generic I got it from their site. (At the moment it's not the ONLY one they use) Note: the INCLUDES do some magic to make it XML. and grab the DTD / define the structure etc. . (all TEI docs start with the TEI element.. AFAIK) Then edited catalog chain to suit. I guess I should "install" to : /usr/share/sgml/tei/dtd/p4 Then sym link back to sgml tree from : /usr/share/xml/tei/schema/dtd/p4/catalog.xml (in real life I have this backwards AND I symlinked everything (all the DTD's) as with TEI the -//blah//string//en can determine the called DTD's..and other extensions ) I am also curious as to what to name the application catalog (s) i.e. /etc/sgml/tei2P4.cat and / or /etc/xml/tei2P4.xml As it happens I mostly use xemacs (psgml) for -- (well you know emacs --anything :) Unless I have the wrong end of the stick I can find no simple way (well none at all really) of getting emacs to process XML style catalog chains.. A snack with SGML but not the other way around. (that is a separate issue but may be worth noting _if it's true_ as it is a great and widely used app for editing XML/SGML and family) Short of learning Elisp.. I am a little stuck there. ( I think I may have to ) Using an SGML based path , with the Prologue from above all is well. I was going to write a TEI installer (To /usr/local/"mirror debian path(s)' but that can wait .. especially as update-catalog blows away the users existing configs :) (in any case I have a work around at the toolkit end .. I just write valid xml for the user :) I can just get on with it .. but would like the lists thoughts on where this should go .. and what we should do about update-catalogs ..(I know this is being discussed on another thread.. Hope this stirs some thought / input ..
