Subject: [PATCH] Tweaks to make asciidoc play nice.
Date: Wed, 5 Apr 2006 23:25:17 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060405222517.GA4202@craic.sysops.org> (raw)

Once the content has been generated, the formatting elves can reorder
it to be pretty...

The manpage formatting needed to stop things being ugly is
nontrivial. In this case, an option has multi-paragraph content,
some of which should be displayed preformatted.

"+" means "this next paragraph is a continuation of the same section"
"--" means "the next paragraphs are all continuations -- don't worry
     about all the other "+"s
"------" means "the next content is preformatted"
"------", the blank line, and the extra indentation within ------ are 
     there because docbook-xsl stylesheets are odd in different ways.
     This combination makes the preformatted text be visually distinct 
     with both versions 1.68 and 1.69. Without that oddness, we could
     use either just ------ or just indentation. Ho hum.
