Now *that's* a syntax for laying out documentation! Don't give me any
sissy WYSIWYG crap or stuff that even *vaguely* looks like the actual
document you are trying to produce... It would be easy for *anyone* to
do it then... And don't even *think* of attempting to improve on a
*standard*...
Sheesh...
Seriously - I wonder if we could make an Anakia stylesheet that worked
with a DocBook DTD...
