Re: [docbook-apps] reference man pages as both seperate files + linkedinto one document


That's good to know. Unfortunately we have too much data to put in a single file and still manage it easily.

Thanks for the info though!

I'm trying to create a number of reference (UNIX) man pages for seperate commands. I need to have these each be a standalone document so I can create UNIX *roff man page files (using docbook2X), but also I need to create a single master "Reference Guide" which includes all of the otherwise standalone reference docs. What's the best way of doing this?


Keep them all in the same single master doc/file. You don't need to have
them be standalone documents in order to use docbook2X. docbook2X
automatically writes out a separate man page for each Refentry chunk it
finds in your document. If it's not doing that, something's wrong.
