You might want to consider m4.

I use make and cpp.  Depending on what pages are like, you can have a
header, footer, sidebar etc. simply #include'd from separate files.
Cpp's -D defines are also handy, except they don't work inside quoted
strings (i.e.  doesn't work). :(  Cpp also 
doesn't like unmatched apostrophes etc.  (I think if I have to do more
html, I'll write a specialized cpp replacement ...)
I use jed to edit the stuff -- it does syntax highliting etc.  I suspect
nowadays vi does, too.  It works quite well when you're making a large 
number of more or less standard pages.  YMMV.

Speaking of html, how does one use sgml tools to do dtd validation? -- is
there a howto somewhere?

preferred way to build web sites?

1997-07-12 Thread Marcus Brinkmann
Hello !

I'm a happy Debian User and I live with unstable. I like Debian, because I
can do everything very easy (killer apps for mail, web and so on).


But I cannot find a good way to build web pages. How do you build web sites
with Debian? Via SGML (with Emacs) or with simple vi? I need something like
a meta-html, because I don't want to change links in all *.html, if I change
the location of one file.

Suggestions, anyone? Is there a Debian package of a good (text-based)
HTML-editor?

TIA, Marcus
