Generating the manuals from svn source

[Nicoto]

Hi,

Could you publish simple instructions on how to generate the individual manuals from the sources in trunk/docs?

This is probably trivial for users familiar with Tex but, for those of us who aren't, this would be very useful in terms of being able to document the features we are implementing (and translating in English) in a manner consistent with what is already available.

Many thanks,

Nicolas

Hello,

This is explained (very briefly) in the installation manual.

You need both pdflatex and transfig installed.

After that, in a build directory, simply run:

make pdf

to build the documentation.

For a specific documentation, you may run this command in the subdirecotory of "docs" matching that manual.

make dist

also generates the documentation, as part of the distribution tarball that it generates.

Best regards,

Yvan
