Hi,

I'm considering re-writing / updating the Crashdump Analysis book, but 
this time in a "proper" way - that is, specifically, not as a StarOffice 
document but in some sort of a markup language. The StarOffice thing is 
simply not maintainable :(

TeX comes to mind as I've used it before, but I'd like to know what other 
alternatives people use. My requirements apart from the typesetting 
capabilitities would be:

a) input is plain text, aka editable with any ASCII-capable editor
b) ability to embed vector graphics (preferrable SVG) as illustrations
c) ability to create PDF output
d) automatic index/TOC generation
e) documents can consist of multiple files (one per chapter), and be
    transferrable to another machine without the need to edit pathnames

What are others using ? Any recommendations ?

Thanks,
FrankH.
