Actually, these docbook2man and docbook2X do the same I think but they hide the details. To use the XSL stylesheets you need docbook-xsl and libxslt and calling xsltproc with the proper parameters. It's pretty easy. Cheers, -- Gabor Kovesdan FreeBSD Volunteer EMAIL: gabor@FreeBSD.org .:|:. gabor@kovesdan.org WEB: http://people.FreeBSD.org/~gabor .:|:. http://kovesdan.org
