Thanks, Nicolas,

If you look carefully at the bottom of that documentation page, you will see
an "xml" link. Click on that, and it comes back in XML.

http://www.stolaf.edu/people/hansonr/jmol/docs

Maybe something can be done with that. (We're not just talking about making a PDF file, right? I mean, that's just printing the HTML document, I would think. Is there a need for that. I'm assuming we are talking here about translation to another language.)

Anyway, the source file is at

http://www.stolaf.edu/people/hansonr/jmol/docs/scripts.xls

What we do for the docbook version is I change the EXCEL and then Egon (I think) uses the XML link to create XML from it.

I reserve the right to change the XLS, though. So how does "translation" in that sort of situation work? How would it be maintained? Are there automatic ways of doing that?

Hi Daniel,

Concerning the scripting part, I don't know how it is build but it will probably be more difficult since there are some examples with the applet.

I'm not sure if I understand: The Docbook XML file can be translated in
a gettext-like way (as I currently do using xml2po). So it's not a
problem to update .pot and .po files (the translation) when the
script-documentation changes.
I was just talking about the fact that the scripting doc contains interactive parts (applet, ...). I don't see how it can go well in a PDF document (static unless I am mistaken)

Otherwise, the script-doc made by Bob Hanson (great job :) ) is not in docbook format.
Apparently it is done with Excel and JavaScript files.
Would it be possible to use gettext tools for this kind of files ?

Nicolas
