All - I have commited my Publican sandbox to SVN. You can check it out at http:..oorexx.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/oorexx/sandbox/david/publican.
Here are some notes about Publican and the sandbox source. 1. Publican uses a "brand" concept to give a project a customized look and feel for their documentation. Our brand is contained in the oorexx subdirectory. This brand must be built and then installed on the build machine. There is a Makefile in the oorexx directory and all you need to do is run "make brand" and then run "make install". The "make install" assumes you have sudo authority to write to the target install directory (/usr/share/publican on Linux systems). 2. The rxsock subdirectory contains everything needed for the rxsock documentation. It was built using the "publican create" command and then customized. When ou create a new document you really only need to copy the directory structure of another document and then customize it. 3. To build rxsock just run "make pdf" or "make html" from the rxsock directory (rxsock has to be your current directory). This will create a new directory called tmp. You will find your output in either tmp/en-US/pdf or tmp/en-US/html. If files can not be found then you probably forgot to install the brand. See step 2. 4. A documentation build causes the brand files and the document files to be merged in the document's tmp directory. First the brand files are copied and then the document files are copied to this location. This allows the document files to override the brand files so that a document can vary from the brand if necessary. 5. There are some special files that need attention for each release cycle. The one you have to touch is the entities file. For rxsock this is located in rxsock/en-US/rxsock.ent. Every document will have one of these entities file with its own name but always with the .ent extension. The entities file has a version variable that needs to be updated for each release of the documentation. I know I have probably forgotten some things but this should get you started. The main Publican web page is at https://fedorahosted.org/publican/. There is a link to the user's guide on that page. I was able to figure everything out from that guide. Do not hesitate to drop me an email if you run into problems.
