Re: [PATCH] xemacs-21.5: make man/xemacs-faq.texi ready to replace http://www.xemacs.org/FAQ content

APA> I have serious doubts about that one. People feeling the APA> need for the FAQ in .txt or .dvi form will probably not be APA> the same people knowing how to produce them. Maybe not, but I really think they'll reach for the HTML first. People who want .txt or .dvi more than .html are going to be able to learn how to produce them. The only sane alternative to HTML (outside of XEmacs) is PDF, but that doesn't support hyperlinks in the viewers I use, anyway. APA> I am leaning towards the radical approach of making the FAQ APA> in the http://www.xemacs.org/ sidebar link to the current APA> beta FAQ, split by chapter only, assuming it will have APA> updated information about the currently stable and beta APA> XEmacs. This is a good assumption. APA> I would then put in a few relative symlinks on the master APA> websites (created by make init) to that new FAQ for backward APA> compatibility with released XEmacs versions advertizing APA> http://www.xemacs.org/FAQ/xemacs-faq.html, and explain this APA> change in the http://www.xemacs.org/FAQ/index.html page. +1 -- Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Ask not how you can "do" free software business; ask what your business can "do for" free software.
