Thomas's new comments on the doc building :
-------------------------------------------
* originally the manual was written with DocBook 3.0 in mind, which
supported the graphic tag. That is now deprecated, so I changed it to
the new mediaobject tag set.
* eps files in images/ should be generated from the makefile. You need to
have fig2dev installed for that.
Wtay's original comments :
--------------------------
For now use:
db2html gstreamer-manual
(On debian, db2html is in the cygnus-stylesheets package)
You will need the png support for docbook (see GNOME documentation project)
convert the fig images to png with:
fig2dev -L png -s 16 fig/<input file>.fig images/<input file>.png
Put a link in the gstreamer-manual directory with
ln -s ../images gstreamer-manual/images
point your browser to gstreamer-manual/gstreamer.html
Fix typing errors and correct bad english.
Let me know about the stuff that needs some more explanation.
Let me know about the structure of the document.
