And xml2pot, which does the docmessage extraction for the translators, is really pedantic eg about the order of special entities in the docbook. So it is possible (and happens every now and then) to break the i18n toolchain of kde completely with a valid xml file.

Nice start! Do you need help in converting it to docbook? Well, it already is (I hope) docbook. It's just without CSS so it looks a bit flat, but still generated with meinproc4. But now that you mention it, I sometimes read about reviewers that seem to be hanging around somewhere, that check the handbooks for markup problems and such, I believe I understand. Do those reviewers read the markup before or after commiting? (not that I feel like committing any time too soon) Hands up if you feel spoken to :-) Manfred > > For linking to other handbooks, I think it is possible but I can't find the > right tag.

Nice start! Do you need help in converting it to docbook? For linking to other handbooks, I think it is possible but I can't find the right tag. Perhaps someone else can confirm/infirm?

[kde-doc-english] KDE Application Manual for Autostart Manager

Hi, I wrote the Autostart manager documentation and I don't understand fully what you mean. Please can you suggest any sentences to add in the doc? Thanks in advance for giving more precisions, Anne-Marie
