README

These scripts and Makefile fragment are used to convert the Python
documentation in LaTeX format to SGML.  XML is also supported as a
target, but is unlikely to be used.

This material is highly preliminary and incomplete.  The XML omnibus
package developed by the Python XML-SIG is required.  See
http://www.python.org/sigs/xml-sig/ for more information on the
package.

To convert a document to SGML:

	cd Doc/<document-dir>
	make -f ../tools/sgmlconv/make.rules TOOLSDIR=../tools

To generate XML instead, use:

	cd Doc/<document-dir>
	make -f ../tools/sgmlconv/make.rules TOOLSDIR=../tools xml

Note that building the second target format is fast because both
conversions use the same intermediate format (an ESIS event stream).
