sgml2x 0.99.1 released


I'm pleased to announce the release of sgml2x 0.99.1.  This is a beta
version, and the first official release to the world.  Probably only
bugfixes will be integrated until 1.0 comes out.

It requires jade and jadetex to work, and you'll need docbook (sgml or
xml), and docbook-dsssl to make immediate use of it.  It was
developped as a bash script, and should run on any platform where bash
runs.

You can get it at:

Here is a small excerpt from the manpage:

DESCRIPTION
       sgml2x allows to easily format  a  SGML  or  XML  document
       using  DSSSL  stylesheets, and provides the following fea­
       tures:

          ·  Multiple possible stylesheets per document class

          ·  Easy specification of stylesheets using aliases

          ·  Easy integration of new stylesheets by adding a sim­
             ple new definition file in a configuration directory

          ·  The  caller can specify a PATH-like list of configu­
             ration directories, defaulting to a  system-wide,  a
             per-user,  and  a per-project configuration directo­
             ries

          ·  Automatic  selection  of  a default stylesheet to be
             used, based on assigned priorities

          ·  Pass arbitrary options to jade(1)

       The document-class used to look for the  stylesheets,  and
       the  output  format, is for now only derived from from the
       name with which the program is called, so you will want to
       call this program through symbolic links like docbook2pdf.
