- Subject: DOCBOOK-APPS: additional line(s) in <screen> and <synopsis>
Hello,
I use xsltproc/saxon, docbook-xsl-1.58.1 and PassiveTex/FOP for ps/pdf
output (I am new to docbook; I try to see if it is a good idea to use
"docbook" for our doc in the place of man page for our project. At
present time I am disappointed by the "print" output, but I like the
html one. But this is not the subject of this mail).
If I've
<screen>
blabla
</screen>
with FOP the screen output zone is
-------------
blabla
-------------
with passivetex it is:
-------------
blabla
-------------
If I've
<screen>blabla</screen>
then, the screen output zone is
-------------
blabla
-------------
with both PassiveTex and FOP.
With html output I've always:
-------------
blabla
-------------
I check all these "zones" by setting shade.verbatim to 1.
IMO the good behavior (for better readability of the source) is that
<screen>blabla</screen>
<screen>
blabla
</screen>
<screen>
blabla</screen>
<screen>blabla
</screen>
should all produce
--------
blabla
--------
as the "html" does. Adding blanc lines should be done as follows:
<screen>
blabla
</screen>
Can I fix that pbs by "fo style-sheet customization" or/and by
changing a magic line in PassiveTex source? I.e., where is the
bug?
Thanks, Olivier
