in looking at the XML sources, checked out from the SVN,
I notice that the "user input" stanzas all have a remap="action"
attribute where action is usually one of "configure", "make" and
so on.

I was wondering what the remap="action" attribute is used for?

jhalfs

Reason for asking is that I'm looking to generate a local copy
of the book that has ALL of the commands in it, so including
commands that arise from my following the Package Management
hint approach, for example, a stanza akin to, at the start

# su - pkguser
$ tar xf /path/to/lfs_sources/pkg-tarball

and at the end

$ cd $HOME
$ rm -fr pkg-src-dir
$ history > HISTORY
$ Ctrl-D

and was wondering which of the existing classes of user input
to use, and/or what the mis-use of a remap="" attribute might
mean for a local rendering.

The power of xml is that the same source can be used for multiple outputs. For instance html, pdf, wget-list, md5sums, currency checks, jhalfs, Sys V version, systemd version, etc all come from the same source.

How the attribute 'role' is used depends on the xsl stylesheets.
