01:04.16 brlcad mm, interesting possible gui for editors, http://xml.openoffice.org/xmerge/docbook/UserGuide.html
01:04.28 brlcad not a great review ( http://wiki.docbook.org/topic/OpenOffice ) but progress
01:05.29 brlcad MSWord>OO>OODocBook might be a reasonable path for vol III and beyond
01:26.04 mafm docbook ftw!
01:36.16 mafm night
01:56.26 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r33573 10/brlcad/trunk/src/librt/db_io.c: need the signal.h header

03:06.04 bjork_ lotus symphony is free as well btw, if anyone wants to avoid using OOOOooooo and/or MsWord.
03:06.14 bjork_ works on linux too!
03:07.43 bjork_ ... and osX as well.
03:08.33 bjork_ http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/01/19/AR2009011901981.html
04:03.25 louipc how does it compare to Ooo?
04:30.53 brlcad bjork_: the original format for those docs is msword and the final format is docbook, so that has to be taken into consideration for determining a useful toolset path
05:14.40 PrezKennedy a free download from IBM?
05:14.46 PrezKennedy it *must* be a trap!

06:58.34 starseeker brlcad: I thought VolIII had a native docbook translation already?
07:18.20 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r33574 10/brlcad/trunk/autogen.sh: (log message trimmed)
07:18.20 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: apply a modified version of sebastian pipping's git commit
07:18.20 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 1aa97fd3387ce7a2744e9157a3ca1ea2a8f8201c (index
07:18.21 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: b75fd44f0db99a60dd489cebab3b81ed4d9a55cc) that adds support to recognize the
07:18.21 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 'foreign' or 'cygnus' automake option. the patch originally printed a hint line
07:18.21 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: if all required files were missing or a custom-tailored marker message if it
07:18.23 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: didn't (as well as fixing a sneaky &> that made it in earlier). changed the
07:26.34 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r33575 10/brlcad/trunk/autogen.sh: I swear I fixed these over a year ago.. old bsd basename doesn't take pipe'd input. use the arg list instead.
07:31.53 brlcad starseeker: ah, right -- i'd forgotten that you'd completed III, so IV then ;)
07:32.27 brlcad more interesting was just being able to have a capable wysiwyg docbook editor for the general masses iff that approach actually worked well enough
07:33.58 brlcad using a text editor to edit the tags directly is a non-starter for many that might help contribute
07:34.33 brlcad even wikitext is a stretch and less-than-ideal (for true nice-quality DTP), but it's a good accessibility/contribution tradeoff
07:56.46 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r33576 10/brlcad/trunk/src/libged/xpush.c: style, ws, reorder to elimiate all but one forward declaration.

22:15.56 ``Erik usually, "cmd -v" just prints the version and exits, does not continue execution
22:30.52 IriX64 wasn't sure how i should approach that, a simple bu_exit( will fix it
22:31.24 IriX64 does bu_exit take parameters ala bu_log?
22:44.42 brlcad <PROTECTED>
22:45.02 IriX64 thanks, ill search
22:45.12 brlcad nice progress
22:45.19 IriX64 thanks
22:45.40 brlcad get rid of the first two lines, add bu_exit, and you should have a viable patch
22:45.45 IriX64 that can be used anywhere you have argv argc :)
