Subject: DOCBOOK-APPS: Re: DOCBOOK: Including a DocBook document in a DocBookdocument
This thread is from the Docbook mailing list, but my follow-up question is taking it in a direction more appropriate for Docbook-apps, so I'm posting it here. Suppose you are working on a book with chapters that are file entities in a master book file. You can use wrappers, as Jirka explains, to validate or process the individual chapters, but to edit one of those chapters with the help that tools like emacs and XMetaL provide, you have to add the doctype from the containing document, do your editing, and then remember to delete it before saving. Is there a way around this? For example, is there a way to let emacs or XMetaL know that a document gets its document type declaration from another document?

Omit <!DOCTYPE> from individual chapters and create small wrapper, which will include just one chapter you want to process separately: <!DOCTYPE book ... [ <!ENTITY chapn SYSTEM "chapn.xml"> ]> <book> &chapn; </book> Now you can process single chapter by using this file. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Jirka Kosek e-mail: jirka@kosek.cz http://www.kosek.cz
