NAME

xmlmp tools -- simple XML-based manpage authoring tools

SYNOPSIS

  • xmlmp2man
  • xmlmp2html

DESCRIPTION

xmlmp tools are simple filters that allow the authoring of unix manpages in XML. They can convert documents complying with the xmlmp 1.1 DTD (a simple DTD defined specifically for this purpose) to either groff scripts (unix online man-pages) or HTML pages.

xmlmp2man is a filter that converts its standard input---which must be a valid xmlmp XML file---to a unix manpage (groff script).

xmlmp2html is a filter that converts its standard input---which must be a valid xmlmp XML file---to an HTML page.

EXAMPLES

xmlmp2man < mycmd.1.xml > mycmd.1

xmlmp2man < mycmd.1.xml > mycmd.1.html
