Hey Jim, This is something I decided not to support, for performance reasons. Mallard takes enough of a seek penalty as it is. Digging into subdirectories didn't seem like a good idea. I do have plans to support multiple pages in a single file. I'm tentatively calling them stack files. Instead of putting related pages in a directory together, you could just have them all in one file. I think this addresses the "look at all these files!" problem pretty nicely. If you think it's crap, though, please let me know. (Stack files also help address some localization problems.) -- Shaun _______________________________________________ gnome-doc-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-doc-list
