Subject:Quick SGML Query From:Robert Busch <robert -at- FOCSYS -dot- FOCUS-SYSTEMS -dot- ON -dot- CA> Date:Wed, 24 May 1995 21:21:01 -0400
Can anyone recommend a good place to start researching SGML? One of
the books we produce is -- I'm certain -- ideally suited to production
in SGML. I'm interested in books, articles, newsgroups, FAQs . . .
and, of course, your opinions. What authoring tools do you suggest for
Windows and/or UNIX & QNX?
For those of you who feel like offering some specific suggestions,
here's my situation. One of the books in our set is an API Library
Reference. Pages and pages of syntax, description, purpose,
parameters, etc., of C-functions. We'd like to maintain a single
source for this information (preferably on a UNIX environment) marked
up in SGML; we'd then like to use this source to produce paper and
online versions of the same information.
Suggestions much appreciated!
Thanks,
Bob
