HOW TO SET UP YOUR OWN SGML EDITING ENVIRONMENT:
==========
Trying to set up an SGML/XML Docbook editing environment the
first time can be a daunting task.
I use Linux-Mandrake, in part, because it has a fully-functional
SGML/XML Docbook editing environment included as part of the
distribution CD's. If you have easier instructions for how to
do this for a particular Linux distribution or platform, please
let the team know at the mailing list: mozilla-webtools@mozilla.org.
The following text is taken nearly verbatim from
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=95970, where I gave
these instructions to someone who wanted the greater manageability
maintaining a document in Docbook brings:
This is just off the top of my head, but here goes. Note some of these may
NOT be necessary, but I don't think they hurt anything by being installed.
rpms:
openjade
jadetex
docbook-dtd41-sgml
docbook-style-dsssl
docbook-dtd31-sgml
docbook-style-dsssl-doc
xemacs
psgml
sgml-tools
sgml-common
Set up environment:
in your .bashrc add this line (after installing above RPMS):
export SGML_CATALOG_FILES=/etc/sgml/catalog
Download "ldp.dsl" from the Resources page on linuxdoc.org. This is the
stylesheet I use to get the HTML and text output. It works well, and has a
nice, consistent look with the rest of the linuxdoc documents. You'll have to
adjust the paths in ldp.dsl at the top of the file to reflect the actual
locations of your docbook catalog files. I created a directory,
/usr/share/sgml/docbook/ldp, and put the ldp.dsl file there. I then edited
ldp.dsl and changed two lines near the top:
<!ENTITY docbook.dsl SYSTEM "../dsssl-stylesheets-1.62/html/docbook.dsl" CDATA
dsssl>
...and...
<!ENTITY docbook.dsl SYSTEM "../dsssl-stylesheets-1.62/print/docbook.dsl" CDATA
dsssl>
Note the difference is the top one points to the HTML docbook stylesheet,
and the next one points to the PRINT docbook stylesheet.
You know, this sure looks awful involved. Anyway, once you have this in
place, add to your .bashrc:
export LDP_HOME=/usr/share/sgml/docbook/ldp
I suggest xemacs for editing your SGML/XML Docbook documents. The darn
thing just works, and generally includes PSGML mode by default. You can
download psgml at http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/psgml.

NOTES:
==========
Here are the commands I use to maintain this documentation.
You MUST have DocBook 4.1 set up correctly in order for this to work,
but there's only a single REMARK tag that's incompatible with 3.1.
Maybe I'll downgrade to DocBook 3.1 to make your life easier...
You MUST have DocBook 4.1 set up correctly in order for this to work.
Substitute your own path to "ldp.dsl" for "$LDP_HOME".
