[PHP-DOC] PHP 3 in Manual/documenting Configure Options

[Mark Kronsbein]

Hi,

just a question about PHP 3 in install.*.xml and in the manual in general.

What is the general "road" of restructuring the manual?
Will PHP 3 still be in the "new" manual?
Is there still need of documenting configure options, which are only valid
in
PHP 3?

Another question:

I asked some weeks ago, how to document each configure option.
Here my renewed suggestion again:

<varlistentry id="install.configure.with-gd">
    <term>
     <parameter>--with-gd[=DIR]</parameter>
    </term>
    <listitem>
     <para>
<!-- Configure info -->
      Include GD support (DIR is GD's install dir). Set DIR to shared
      to build as a dl, or shared,DIR to build as a dl and still specify
DIR.
     </para>
<!-- Short introduction with links (where to get libs etc.)-->
     <para>
      With the GD library (available at <a
href="http://www.boutell.com/gd/";>
      http://www.boutell.com/gd/</a>) you will be able to create and
      manipulate images. The following formats are supported: GIF (GD <
1.6),
      PNG (GD > 1.6), JPEG, WBMP (GD > 1.8), and SWF. Versions newer
      than 1.6 support PNG instead of GIF. To use JPEG you need to
      install libjpeg > 6b (available at <a
href="ftp://ftp.uu.net/graphics/jpeg/";>
      ftp://ftp.uu.net/graphics/jpeg/</a>) and install PHP
with --with-jpeg-dir.
     You will also need the <a href="http://www.gzip.org/zlib/";>zlib</a>
and,
      if you want to use True Type Fonts, <a
href="http://www.freetype.org/";>
      Freetype</a>.
      </para>
<!-- Functions to use whith this extension -->
      <para>
      Functions to use with GD are documented <a
href="ref.image.php">here</a>.
     </para>
    </listitem>
   </varlistentry>

Just my &euro; 0.02, but think about it and tell me, what you think.
