Hello We're quite happy users of XXE here (we bought several licences) and also use the APT format for some documents.
While with XXE and DocBook everything seems more or less ok, the users that write APT are always complaining of the same two things: - The fact that starting in the first column will make your paragraph a first level header. In some cases people just writes a single paragraph, and they expect it to behave (in absence of further formatting) closer to plain text. It would be nice if ONE STAR meant first level section, TWO second level and so on. - The fact that you have to put [] after a bulleted list to avoid all following content to become part of the last list item. I think this is a nice feature that allows to write complex "items", but in the light of its usage, there are many more cases where you actually want to END the item than where you want to extend it. So much more sensible default would be to end the item by default and use something else to extend it if you have to (indentation?). These two things are making the whole process unintuitive and come back again and again. Would it be possible to do something to fix it. Maybe being able to configure the behaviour or the parser would be a good thing, so that it doesn't break compatibility for everybody else... Please tell me your thoughts about it. Keep up the good work. Daniel -- Daniel Varela Santoalla European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) (http://www.ecmwf.int) Email: dvarela at ecmwf.int Telephone: (+44) 118 9499608
