Bug#253085: docbook2man-spec.pl

2005-07-17 Thread Helge Kreutzmann 
Hello Eric,
I have an improvement for the docbook2man-spec.pl script. I tried to
mail it to Steve Cheng but the email-address is no longer valid. Can
you please forward this message (follows) to him or the person
responsible for docbook2man-spec.pl now?

Thanks

  Helge


Hello Steve,
in the man page for docbook2man-spec.pl, you write:
Support  other  (human)  languages.   But  what  to do with non-ASCII
 charsets?  SGMLSpm doesn't report them and roff does not  grok  them.
 [Comment:  text  after enclosed lists (and SS blocks) will break doc-
 book2man] If we do this, more people can use DocBook.

I needed docbook2man for german, so I hacked in german support. Of course,
german contains only a few non-ASCII characters, but as far as I tested, it 
works. Can you have a look at my solution found at

bugs.debian.org/253085

and tell me your thoughts? The Debian maintainers have not yet responded
on my ideas, therefor I write this to you directly. Maybe you've
started some work in this in the meantime as well, so we can merge
those?

Thanks for writing docbook2man-spec.pl, it is really a good tool.

Greetings

   Helge
