Been there, done that. I've even attempted to put up with emacs to use their sgml mode, but find myself back in old-faithful vi when my frustration level goes over the top (even using emacs vi mode :-). That's also what led me to write my mm2docbook filters so I can write using my normal markup, and convert very quickly. >Irony of ironies, the documentation for JADE ( the editor recommended >on the docbook site ) sucks. I think that jade isn't an editor, but a front-end processor that hides some of the docbook (or other DTD) stuff from the user. I further hide that by wrapping it in some perl and shell scripts that invoke it the way I want to use it. One of the other things that Phil Hughes mentioned when I was talking to him was that he's been using abiword, and that it groks sgml. I don't normally use GUI-anything for writing, but I've downloaded the latest sources, and will be giving it a look shortly. ... >If someone else wants to put it in docbook format and maintain it, feel >free to do so. :) I will most likely be adding freeradius documentation to our general support documentation. This will probably be aimed at the ISP's support people who need to modify the users file for their customer's requirements. Anything that's generally useful, I can make available. -- Bill -- INTERNET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Bill Campbell; Celestial Software LLC UUCP: camco!bill PO Box 820; 6641 E.
