Re: [docbook-apps] refentry to man does not transform tables in man pages


Bonjour, Tilly,

This is a known bug:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=619532&group_id=21935&atid=516914

Unfortunately, the perl script for transforming an SGML refentry to a man
page won't do tables either.

Wish I could be more helpful.

Bonjour,

I am using xsltproc and docbook-xsl/manpages/docbook.xsl to convert man
pages
from DocBook XML to man (groff).

Unfortunately we have tables (!) in a number of our man pages.

Before embarking in an (hopeless) effort to write the transformation (I am
neither a guru for XSLT, or troff/nroff/groff), I am asking if any of you
have
already written something like that?

Merci,

Tilly
