I have split up an xml website dtd document and can't get the above
cited trick to work. I have used only a 'SYSTEM' identifier for the
website dtd in the parent. I have made sure there are no comments in
the parent.
My psgmls 'validate' command works great on the parent, btw; and, it
ripples through all the included 'child' docs too. I've even tried
using an absolute path for the parent in the 'sgml-parent-document'.
Here's one of the smaller children:
<webpage>
<config param="filename" value="downloads.html"/>
<head>
<title>Downloads!</title>
</head>
<formalpara>
<title>Yes, that's right, downloads.</title>
<para>You may find it hard to believe but there are some out there who
actually want some of my stuff. Here is where they (and you, mayhap?) can find
it.</para>
</formalpara>
<para>My DOS numerology program: <ulink
url="123you.exe"><emphasis>123you.exe</emphasis></ulink>. This is the
actual executable, not a self-extracting archive. Just put it in your
PATH somewhere and run. If you are, sadly, a Windows user, I recommend
either rebooting to MSDOS mode, or creating a shortcut for
<emphasis>123you.exe</emphasis> and specifying full screen mode in the
shortcut properties. Printing is a pain. Be sure to wait for the "Send
a form feed?" query and answer appropriately. Experiment. Be creative.
Also, be advised I never finished this program; the help screens,
especially, are virtually non-existent. Sorry.</para>

Nsgmls cannot find 'fancy.xml', and psgmls cannot find it either, say,
if I try to parse the DTD.
