This a a space for me to play around with Docbook & Oxygen.

It's a scratch workspace. There's nothing much to describe because there is nothing important here.

It's a repo on Github. Configure a Github account, install and configure Git. Clone it, edit the files. Add them, commit them, push them back. That is about it.

Since it's not really software, there aren't many pre-requisities.

Git
A Github account
A text editor, such as Xed from the Mint X-Apps.
A tool to compile Docbook into something more readable, such as Publican or DAPS.

What is to install? These are text files, not code.

Choose a text editor you like and can work with.
This should be something friendly and powerful. Or, alternatively, Vi or Emacs.

If you don't want to muck around with Git, you could just use a web browser and download it.

There are no tests. Can you read it? Yes. Good, you're done. Can you read? No? We suggest you try 9gag or Imgur then.

English, motherfreaker. Do you speak it?

Jules from "Pulp Fiction". He's a good example, and he's not even real.

The Readme is in Markdown. The rest is in Docbook, which is a kind of XML. Don't ask. If you don't know, you won't like it.

I told you you wouldn't like it.

Best not, eh?

• Xed - A simple-ish text editor with actual menus.
• oXygen/ - A semi-WYSIWYG XML editor.
• DAPS - Used to ``compile'' Docbook to PDF & other formats.
• Dillinger -- online Markdown editor. Nifty.

You probably can't, but cash donations or winning lottery tickets are welcome.

Version 0.01 - Replace Github's near-empty file with some boilerplate text.

Version 0.02 - Fix: replace "Githib" with actual website name. Test Dillinger editor.

Version 0.03 - Fix errors, typos & layout introduced with Dillinger. You know how it is.

Version 0.04 - This is actually turning into a real revision history. Well I never.
