Title: Message

Karen,

 

Here is a 
description of setting up xslt from Bob Stayton's

DocBook XSL: 
The Complete Guide. I have only used the Linux

description, 
but I think the windows version works well, too.

 

http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/InstallingAProcessor.html

 

If you plan 
to do much with DocBook XSL, his book is a

must have. 
It will help you with your "hackfest." You can

start with 
the online version, but the print is worth

having.

Hope that 
helps,

  [docbook-apps] Question about XSLT processors

I'm 
  following instructions for Windows on this page:

http://evergreen-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=documentation:setting_up_docbook_transforms

I've 
  made it through all the steps, but I have to tell you these instructions feel 
  like they have a high kludge factor to them -- lots of typing, command-line 
  stuff, etc. -- and as a newbie I wondered if there were better tools. 
  

(By the way, I have committed to holding two "hackfest" sessions on 
  Docbook at our upcoming Evergreen conference, so I have about 90 days to 
  actually learn enough to stay ahead of a group of folks ;) ... no pressure 
  there, eh)
