Added all DocBook Framework stuff:

  • DocBook DTD
  • Transformation software FOP 0.20.5 and Saxon 6
  • XSL styles
  • Rexx scripts

Also added some WarpIN-related stuff for creation of WarpIN installation packages.
This state corresponds to version 1.0.0 from November 2005, just slightly modified to carry versioning information (Rexx scripts).

4 At a minimum, this file attempts to document changes to the public

7 release.</p><p>Bug fixes are (mostly) not documented here. For a complete
8 list of changes, including descriptions of bug fixes, see the <a href="NEWS" target="_top">NEWS</a> file, which is auto-generated from the checkin

10 release. Along with bug fixes, it includes one
11 configuration-parameter change: The default value of the
12 <a href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/html/annotation.support.html"><em class="parameter"><code>annotation.support</code></em></a> parameter is now
13 <code class="literal">0</code> (off). The reason for that change is that
14 there have been reports that <code class="sgmltag-element">annotation</code> handling is
15 causing a significant performance degradation in processing of
16 large documents with <span><strong class="command">xsltproc</strong></span>.</p></div><div class="section" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a name="d0e40"></a>Release 1.69.0</h2></div></div></div><p>The release includes major feature changes,
17 particularly in the <a href="#V1690_MAN" title="man">manpages
18 stylesheets</a>, as well as a large number of bug fixes.</p><p>As with all DocBook Project &#8220;<span class="quote">dot zero</span>&#8221; releases, this is an

20 languages:
21 <span class="simplelist">Albanian, Amharic, Azerbaijani, Hindi, Irish (Gaelic), Gujarati, Kannada, Mongolian, Oriya, Punjabi, Tagalog, Tamil, and Welsh</span>.</p></li><li><p>Added support for specifying number format for auto
22 labels for <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/chapter.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">chapter</code></a>, <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/appendix.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">appendix</code></a>,
23 <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/part.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">part</code></a>, and <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/preface.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">preface</code></a>. Contolled with the
24 <a href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/html/appendix.autolabel.html"><em class="parameter"><code>appendix.autolabel</code></em></a>,
25 <a href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/html/chapter.autolabel.html"><em class="parameter"><code>chapter.autolabel</code></em></a>,
26 <a href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/html/part.autolabel.html"><em class="parameter"><code>part.autolabel</code></em></a>, and
27 <a href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/html/preface.autolabel.html"><em class="parameter"><code>preface.autolabel</code></em></a> parameters.</p></li><li><p>Added basic support for <code class="sgmltag-element">biblioref</code> cross
28 referencing.</p></li><li><p>Added support for <code class="sgmltag-attribute">align</code>
29 on <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/caption.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">caption</code></a> in <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/mediaobject.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">mediaobject</code></a>.</p></li><li><p>Added support for processing documents that use the
30 DocBook V5 namespace.</p></li><li><p>Added support for <code class="sgmltag-element">termdef</code> and
31 <code class="sgmltag-element">mathphrase</code>.</p></li><li><p>EXPERIMENTAL: Incorporated the Slides and Website
32 stylesheets into the DocBook XSL stylesheets package. So,
33 for example, Website documents can now be processed using
34 the following URI for the driver Website
35 <code class="filename">tabular.xsl</code> file: </p><pre class="literallayout"><code class="uri">http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/website/tabular.xsl</code></pre></li><li><p>A <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/procedure.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">procedure</code></a> without a <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/title.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">title</code></a> is
36 now treated as an &#8220;<span class="quote">informal</span>&#8221; procedure (meaning
37 that it is not added to any generated &#8220;<span class="quote">list of
38 procedures</span>&#8221; and has no affect on numbering of
39 generated labels for other procedures).</p></li><li><p><code class="sgmltag-element">docname</code> is no longer added to
40 <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/olink.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">olink</code></a> when pointing to a root element.</p></li><li><p>Added support for generation of choice separator in
41 inline simplelist. This enables auto-generation of an
42 appropriate localized &#8220;<span class="quote">choice separator</span>&#8221; (for
43 example, &#8220;<span class="quote">and</span>&#8221; or &#8220;<span class="quote">or</span>&#8221;) before the
44 final item in an inline <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/simplelist.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">simplelist</code></a>.</p><p>To indicate that you want a choice separator
45 generated for a particular list, you need to put a processing
46 instruction (PI) of the form
47 <code class="sgmltag-xmlpi">&lt;?dbchoice&nbsp;choice="foo"?&gt;</code> as a
48 child of the list. For example:
49 </p><pre class="literallayout"> &lt;para&gt;Choose from
50 ONE and ONLY ONE of the following:
51 &lt;simplelist type="inline"&gt;
52 &lt;?dbchoice choice="or" ?&gt;
53 &lt;member&gt;A&lt;/member&gt;
54 &lt;member&gt;B&lt;/member&gt;
55 &lt;member&gt;C&lt;/member&gt;.&lt;/simplelist&gt;&lt;/para&gt;</pre><p>
56
57 Output (for English):
58 </p><div class="blockquote"><blockquote class="blockquote"><p>Choose from ONE and only ONE of the
59 following choices: A, B, or C.</p></blockquote></div><p>
60 As a temporary workaround for the fact that most of the
61 DocBook non-English locale files don't have a localization for
62 the word &#8220;<span class="quote">or</span>&#8221;, you can put in a literal string to
63 be used; example for French: <code class="sgmltag-pi">&lt;?dbchoice&nbsp;choice="ou"&gt;</code>. That is, use
64 &#8220;<span class="quote">ou</span>&#8221; instead of &#8220;<span class="quote">or</span>&#8221;.</p></li></ul></div></div><div class="section" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="V1690_FO"></a>FO</h3></div></div></div><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p> Added <code class="literal">content-type</code> property to

66 <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/imagedata.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">imagedata</code></a> <code class="sgmltag-attribute">format</code>
67 attribute.</p></li><li><p>Added support for generating
68 <code class="literal">&lt;rx:meta-field&nbsp;creator="$VERSION"/&gt;</code>
69 field for XEP output. This makes the DocBook XSL
70 stylesheet version information available through the
71 <span class="guimenu">Document Properties</span> menu in Acrobat
72 Reader and other PDF viewers.</p></li><li><p>Trademark symbol handling made consistent with
73 handling of same in HTML stylesheets. Prior to this change,
74 if you processed a document that contained no value for the
75 <code class="sgmltag-attribute">class</code> attribute on the
76 <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/trademark.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">trademark</code></a> element, the HTML stylesheets would
77 default to rendering a superscript <code class="literal">TM
78 </code>symbol after the <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/trademark.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">trademark</code></a> contents,
79 but the FO stylesheets would render nothing.</p></li><li><p>Added support for generating XEP bookmarks for

82 sum column specs if none use <code class="literal">%</code> or
83 <code class="literal">*</code>.</p></li><li><p>Added <code class="literal">fox:destination</code> extension
84 inside <code class="literal">fox:outline</code> to support linking to

93 <code class="literal">none</code>.</p></li><li><p>Implemented the new
94 <em class="parameter"><code>graphical.admonition.properties</code></em> and
95 <em class="parameter"><code>nongraphical.admonition.properties</code></em>
96 attribute sets.</p></li><li><p>Added <code class="sgmltag-attribute">id</code> to
97 <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/formalpara.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">formalpara</code></a> and some other blocks that were
98 missing it.</p></li><li><p>Changed the anchor template to output
99 <code class="literal">fo:inline</code> instead of
100 <code class="literal">fo:wrapper</code>.</p></li><li><p>Added support for <a href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/html/toc.max.depth.html"><em class="parameter"><code>toc.max.depth</code></em></a>
101 parameter.</p></li></ul></div></div><div class="section" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="V1690_HELP"></a>Help</h3></div></div></div><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p>Eclipse Help: Added support for generating olink

134 new boolean config parameter,

136 is non-zero (the default), any underscore in a language code
137 will be converted to a hyphen in HTML output. If it is zero,
138 the language code will be left as-is.</p></li></ul></div></div><div class="section" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="V1690_MAN"></a>man</h3></div></div></div><p>This release closes out 44 manpages stylesheet bug reports
139 and feature requests. It adds more than 35 new configuration
140 parameters for controlling aspects of man-page output --
141 including hyphenation and justification, handling of links,
142 conversion of Unicode characters, and contents of man-page
143 headers and footers.</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p>New options for globally disabling/enabling
144 hyphenation and justification:
145 <a href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/manpages/man.justify.html"><em class="parameter"><code>man.justify</code></em></a> and
146 <a href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/manpages/man.hyphenate.html"><em class="parameter"><code>man.hyphenate</code></em></a>.</p><p>Note that the default
147 for the both of those is zero (off), because justified text
148 looks good only when it is also hyphenated; to quote the
149 &#8220;<span class="quote">Hyphenation</span>&#8221; node from the groff info page:
150 </p><div class="blockquote"><blockquote class="blockquote"><p><span class="emphasis"><em>Since the odds are not great for finding a
151 set of words, for every output line, which fit nicely on a
152 line without inserting excessive amounts of space between
153 words, `gtroff' hyphenates words so that it can justify
154 lines without inserting too much space between
155 words.</em></span></p></blockquote></div><p>
156 The problem is that groff can end up hyphenating a lot of
157 things that you don't want hyphenated (variable names and
158 command names, for example). Keeping both justification and
159 hyphenation disabled ensures that hyphens won't get inserted
160 where you don't want to them, and you don't end up with
161 lines containing excessive amounts of space between
162 words. These default settings run counter to how most
163 existing man pages are formatted. But there are some notable
164 exceptions, such as the perl man pages.</p></li><li><p> Added parameters for controlling hyphenation of
165 computer inlines, filenames, and URLs. By default, even when
166 hyphenation is enabled (globally), hyphenation is now
167 suppressed for "computer inlines" (currently, just

176 <em class="parameter"><code>man.hyphenate.urls parameters</code></em>.</p></li><li><p>Implemented a new system for replacing Unicode
177 characters. There are two parts to the new system: a
178 &#8220;<span class="quote">string substitution map</span>&#8221; for doing
179 &#8220;<span class="quote">essential</span>&#8221; replacements, and a
180 &#8220;<span class="quote">character map</span>&#8221; that can optionally be disabled
181 and enabled.</p><p>The new system fixes all open bugs that had to do with
182 literal Unicode numbered entities such as &amp;#8220; and
183 &amp;#8221; showing up in output, and greatly expands the
184 ability of the stylesheets to generate &#8220;<span class="quote">good</span>&#8221; roff
185 equivalents for Unicode symbols and special
186 characters.</p><p>Here are some details...</p><p>The previous manpages mechanism for replacing Unicode
187 symbols and special characters with roff equivalents (the
188 <code class="function">replace-entities</code> template) was not
189 scalable and not complete. The mechanism handled a somewhat
190 arbitrary selection of less than 20 or so Unicode
191 characters. But there are potentially more than
192 <span class="emphasis"><em>800</em></span> Unicode special characters that
193 have some groff equivalent they can be mapped to. And there
194 are about 34 symbols in the Latin-1 (ISO-8859-1) block
195 alone. Users might reasonably expect that if they include
196 any of those Latin-1 characters in their DocBook source
197 documents, they will get correctly converted to known roff
198 equivalents in output.</p><p>In addition to those common symbols, certain users may
199 have a need to use symbols from other Unicode blocks. Say,
200 somebody who is documenting an application related to math
201 might need to use a bunch of symbols from the
202 &#8220;<span class="quote">Mathematical Operators</span>&#8221; Unicode block (there
203 are about 65 characters in that block that have reasonable
204 roff equivalents). Or somebody else might really like
205 Dingbats -- such as the checkmark character -- and so might
206 use a bunch of things from the &#8220;<span class="quote">Dingbat</span>&#8221; block
207 (141 characters in that that have roff equivalents or that
208 can at least be &#8220;<span class="quote">degraded</span>&#8221; somewhat gracefully
209 into roff).</p><p>So, the old <code class="function">replace-entities</code>
210 mechanism was replaced with a completely different mechanism
211 that is based on use of two &#8220;<span class="quote">maps</span>&#8221;: a
212 &#8220;<span class="quote">substitution map</span>&#8221; and a &#8220;<span class="quote">character
213 map</span>&#8221; (the latter in a format compliant with the XSLT
214 2.0 spec and therefore completely &#8220;<span class="quote">forward
215 compatible</span>&#8221; with XSLT 2.0).</p><p>The substitution map is controlled through the
216 <a href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/manpages/man.string.subst.map.html"><em class="parameter"><code>man.string.subst.map</code></em></a> parameter, and
217 is used to replace things like the backslash character
218 (which needs special handling to prevent it from being
219 interpreted as a roff escape). The substitution map cannot
220 be disabled, because disabling it will cause the output to
221 be broken. However, you can add to it and change it if
222 needed.</p><p>The &#8220;<span class="quote">character map</span>&#8221; mechanism, on the
223 other hand, can be completely disabled. It is enabled by
224 default, and, by default, does replacement of all Latin-1
225 symbols, along with most special spaces, dashes, and quotes
226 (about 75 characters by default). Also, you can optionally
227 enable a &#8220;<span class="quote">full</span>&#8221; character map that provides
228 support for converting all 800 or so of the characters that
229 have some reasonable groff equivalent.</p><p>The character-map mechanism is controlled through the
230 following parameters:
231 </p><div class="variablelist"><dl><dt><span class="term"><a href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/manpages/man.charmap.enabled.html"><em class="parameter"><code>man.charmap.enabled</code></em></a></span></dt><dd><p>turns character-map support

235 use instead of the &#8220;<span class="quote">standard</span>&#8221; character map
236 provided in the distribution</p></dd></dl></div><p>
237 </p></li><li><p>Implemented out-of-line handling of display of URLs
238 for links (currently, only for <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/ulink.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">ulink</code></a>). This gives
239 you three choices for handling of links:
240 </p><div class="orderedlist"><ol type="1"><li><p>Number and list links. Each link is numbered
241 inline, with a number in square brackets preceding the
242 link contents, and a numbered list of all links is added
243 to the end of the document.</p></li><li><p>Only list links. Links are not numbered, but an
244 (unnumbered) list of links is added to the end of the
245 document.</p></li><li><p>Suppress links. Don't number links and don't add
246 any list of links to the end of the document.</p></li></ol></div><p>
247 You can also choose whether links should be underlined. The
248 default is &#8220;<span class="quote">the works</span>&#8221; -- list, number, and
249 underline links. You can use the
250 <a href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/manpages/man.links.list.enabled.html"><em class="parameter"><code>man.links.list.enabled</code></em></a>, <a href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/manpages/man.links.are.numbered.html"><em class="parameter"><code>
251 man.links.are.numbered</code></em></a>, and
252 <a href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/manpages/man.links.are.underlined.html"><em class="parameter"><code>man.links.are.underlined</code></em></a> parameters
253 to change the defaults. The default heading for the link
254 list is REFERENCES. You can be change that using the
255 <a href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/manpages/man.links.list.heading.html"><em class="parameter"><code>man.links.list.heading</code></em></a>
256 parameter.</p></li><li><p>Changed default output encoding to UTF-8. <span class="bold"><strong>This does not mean that man pages are output in
257 raw UTF-8</strong></span>, because the character map is applied
258 before final output, causing all UTF-8 characters covered in
259 the map to be converted to roff equivalents.</p></li><li><p>Added support for processing <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/refsect3.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">refsect3</code></a> and
260 <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/formalpara.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">formalpara</code></a> and nested <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/refsection.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">refsection</code></a>
261 elements, down to any arbitrary level of nesting.</p></li><li><p>Output of the <code class="literal">NAME</code> and
262 <code class="literal">SYNOPSIS</code> and <code class="literal">AUTHOR</code>
263 headings and the headings for admonitions (<a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/note.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">note</code></a>,
264 <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/caution.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">caution</code></a>, etc.) are no longer hard-coded for
265 English. Instead, headings are generated for those in the
266 correct locale (just as the FO and HTML stylesheets
267 do).</p></li><li><p>Re-worked mechanism for assembling page
268 headers/footers (the contents of the <code class="literal">.TH</code>
269 macro &#8220;<span class="quote">title line</span>&#8221;).</p><p>Here are some details...</p><p>All man pages contain a <code class="literal">.TH</code> roff
270 macro whose contents are used for rendering the &#8220;<span class="quote">title
271 line</span>&#8221; displayed in the header and footer of each
272 page. Here are a couple of examples of real-world man pages
273 that have useful page headers/footers: </p><pre class="literallayout">
274 gtk-options(7) GTK+ User's Manual gtk-options(7) &lt;-- header
275 GTK+ 1.2 2003-10-20 gtk-options(7) &lt;-- footer

278 Svgalib 1.4.1 16 December 1999 svgalib(7) &lt;-- footer</pre><p>And here are the terms with which the
279 <code class="literal">groff_man(7)</code> man page refers to the
280 various parts of the header/footer: </p><pre class="literallayout">
281 title(section) extra3 title(section) &lt;- header
282 extra2 extra1 title(section) &lt;- footer</pre><p> Or, using the names with which the <code class="literal">man(7)</code>
283 man page refers to those same fields: </p><pre class="literallayout">
284 title(section) manual title(section) &lt;- page header
285 source date title(section) &lt;- page footer</pre><p>The easiest way to control the contents of those

432 includes DocBook XSL stylesheets version number (as in the
433 HTML stylesheets)</p></li><li><p>Made change to prevent &#8220;<span class="quote">sticky</span>&#8221; fonts
434 changes. Now, when the manpages stylesheets encounter node
435 sets that need to be boldfaced or italicized, they put the
436 <code class="literal">\fBfoo\fR</code> and <code class="literal">\fIbar\fR</code>
437 groff bold/italic instructions separately around each node in
438 the set.</p></li><li><p>synop.xsl: Boldface everything in
439 <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/funcsynopsis.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">funcsynopsis</code></a> output except parameters (which are in
440 ital). The <code class="literal">man(7)</code> man page says:
441 </p><div class="blockquote"><blockquote class="blockquote"><p>For functions, the arguments are always specified
442 using italics, even in the SYNOPSIS section, where the rest
443 of the function is specified in bold.</p></blockquote></div><p>
444 A look through the contents of the
445 <code class="filename">man/man2</code> directory shows that most
446 (all) existing pages do follow this &#8220;<span class="quote">everything in
447 funcsynopsis bold</span>&#8221; rule. That means the
448 <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/type.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">type</code></a> content and any punctuation (parens,
449 semicolons, <code class="sgmltag-element">vararg</code>s) also must be bolded.</p></li><li><p>Removed code for adding backslashes before periods/dots
450 in roff source, because backslashes in front of periods/dots
451 in roff source are needed only in the very rare case where a
452 period is the very first character in a line, without any
453 space in front of it. A better way to deal with that rare case
454 is for you to add a zero-width space in front of the offending
455 dot(s) in your source</p></li><li><p>Removed special handling of the <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/quote.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">quote</code></a>
456 element. That was hard-coded to cause anything marked up with
457 the <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/quote.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">quote</code></a> element to be output preceded by two
458 backticks and followed by two apostrophes -- that is, that
459 old-school kludge for generating &#8220;<span class="quote">curly</span>&#8221; quotes in Emacs and
460 in X-Windows fonts. While Emacs still seems to support that, I
461 don't think X-Windows has for a long time now. And, anyway, it
462 looks (and has always looked) like crap when viewed on a
463 normal tty/console. In addition, it breaks localiztion of
464 <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/quote.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">quote</code></a>. By default, <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/quote.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">quote</code></a> content is
465 output with localized quotation marks, which, depending on the
466 locale, may or may not be left and right double quotation
467 marks.</p></li><li><p>Changed mappings for left and right single quotation
468 marks. Those had previously been incorrectly mapped to the
469 backtick (&amp;#96;) and apostrophe (&amp;39;) characters (for
470 kludgy reasons -- see above). They are now correctly mapped to
471 the <code class="literal">\(oq</code> and <code class="literal">\(cq</code> roff
472 escapes. If you want the old (broken) behavior, you need to
473 manually change the mappings for those in the value of the
474 <a href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/manpages/man.string.subst.map.html"><em class="parameter"><code>man.string.subst.map</code></em></a> parameter.</p></li><li><p>Removed <code class="filename">xref.xsl</code> file. Now, of the
475 various cross-reference elements, only the <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/ulink.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">ulink</code></a>
476 element is handled differently; the rest are handled exactly
477 as the HTML stylesheets handle them, except that no hypertext
478 links are generated. (Because there is no equivalent hypertext
479 mechanism is man pages.)</p></li><li><p>New option for making &#8220;<span class="quote">subheading dividers</span>&#8221; in generated
480 roff source. The dividers are not visible in the rendered man
481 page; they are just there to make the source
482 readable. Controlled using
483 <a href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/manpages/man.subheading.divider.html"><em class="parameter"><code>man.subheading.divider</code></em></a>.</p></li><li><p>Fixed many places where too much space was being added
484 between lines.</p></li></ul></div></div></div><div class="section" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a name="d0e1625"></a>Release 1.68.1</h2></div></div></div><p>The release adds localization support for Farsi (thanks to

669<a href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/html/prefer.internal.olink.html"><em class="parameter"><code>prefer.internal.olink</code></em></a>.
670See the reference page for each parameter for more
671information.</p></li></ul></div></li><li><p>
672Added <a href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/html/index.on.type.html"><em class="parameter"><code>index.on.type</code></em></a> parameter for new <code class="sgmltag-attribute">type</code>
673attribute introduced in DocBook 4.3 for indexterms and index.
674This allows you to create multiple indices containing
675different categories of entries.
676For users of 4.2 and earlier, you can use the new parameter <a href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/html/index.on.role.html"><em class="parameter"><code>index.on.role</code></em></a>
677instead.
678</p></li><li><p>
679Added new
680<a href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/html/section.autolabel.max.depth.html"><em class="parameter"><code>section.autolabel.max.depth</code></em></a> parameter to turn off section numbering
681below a certain depth.
682This permits you to number major section levels and leave minor
683section levels unnumbered.</p></li><li><p>
684Added <em class="parameter"><code>footnote.sep.leader.properties</code></em> attribute set to format
685the line separating footnotes in printed output.
686</p></li><li><p>
687Added parameter <a href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/html/img.src.path.html"><em class="parameter"><code>img.src.path</code></em></a> as a prefix to HTML img src
688attributes.
689The prefix is added to whatever path is already generated by the
690stylesheet for each image file.</p></li><li><p>
691Added new attribute-sets
692<em class="parameter"><code>informalequation.properties</code></em>,
693<em class="parameter"><code>informalexample.properties</code></em>,
694<em class="parameter"><code>informalfigure.properties</code></em>, and <em class="parameter"><code>informaltable.properties</code></em>,
695so each such element type can be formatted
696individually if needed.
697</p></li><li><p>
698Add <a href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/html/component.label.includes.part.label.html"><em class="parameter"><code>component.label.includes.part.label</code></em></a>
699parameter to add any part number to chapter, appendix
700and other component labels when
701the <a href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/html/label.from.part.html"><em class="parameter"><code>label.from.part</code></em></a> parameter is nonzero.
702This permits you to distinguish multiple chapters with the same
703chapter number in cross references and the TOC.</p></li><li><p>
704Added <a href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/html/chunk.separate.lots.html"><em class="parameter"><code>chunk.separate.lots</code></em></a> parameter for HTML output.
705This parameter lets you generate separate chunk files for each LOT
706(list of tables, list of figures, etc.).</p></li><li><p>Added several table features:</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="circle"><li><p>
707Added <em class="parameter"><code>table.table.properties</code></em> attribute set to add
708properties to the fo:table element.
709</p></li><li><p>
710Added placeholder templates named <code class="literal">table.cell.properties</code>
711and <code class="literal">table.cell.block.properties</code> to enable adding properties
712to any <code class="sgmltag-element">fo:table-cell</code> or the cell's <code class="sgmltag-element">fo:block</code>, respectively.
713 These templates are a start for implementing table styles.</p></li></ul></div></li><li><p>
714Added new attribute
715set <em class="parameter"><code>component.title.properties</code></em> for easy modifications of
716component's title formatting in FO output.
717</p></li><li><p>
718Added Saxon support for an <code class="sgmltag-attribute">encoding</code> attribute on the <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/textdata.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">textdata</code></a> element. Added new parameter
719<a href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/html/textdata.default.encoding.html"><em class="parameter"><code>textdata.default.encoding</code></em></a> which specifies encoding when
720<code class="sgmltag-attribute">encoding</code> attribute on
721<a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/textdata.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">textdata</code></a> is missing.
722</p></li><li><p>
723Template <code class="literal">label.this.section</code> now controls whole
724section label, not only sub-label which corresponds to
725particular label. Former behaviour was IMHO bug as it was
726not usable.
727</p></li><li><p>
728Formatting in titleabbrev for TOC and headers
729is preserved when there are no hotlink elements in the title. Formerly the title showed only the text of the title, no font changes or other markup.
730</p></li><li><p>
731Added <code class="literal">intial.page.number</code> template to set the <code class="literal">initial-page-number
732property</code> for page sequences in print output.
733Customizing this template lets you change when page numbering restarts. This is similar to the <code class="literal">format.page.number</code> template that lets you change how the page number formatting changes in the output.
734</p></li><li><p>
735Added <code class="literal">force.page.count</code> template to set the force-page-count
736property for page sequences in print output.
737This is similar to the <code class="literal">format.page.number</code> template.
738</p></li><li><p>
739Sort language for localized index sorting in <code class="filename">autoidx-ng.xsl</code> is now taken from document
740lang, not from system environment.
741</p></li><li><p>
742Numbering and formatting of normal
743and ulink footnotes (if turned on) has been unified.
744Now ulink footnotes are mixed in with any other footnotes.</p></li><li><p>
745Added support for <code class="sgmltag-element">renderas</code> attribute in section and
746sect1 et al.
747This permits you to render a given section title as if it were a different level.</p></li><li><p>
748Added support for <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/label.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">label</code></a> attribute in footnote to manually
749supply the footnote mark.
750</p></li><li><p>
751Added support for DocBook 4.3 <code class="sgmltag-element">corpcredit</code> element.
752</p></li><li><p>
753Added support for a <code class="literal">dbfo keep-together</code> PI for
754formal objects (table, figure, example, equation, programlisting). That permits a formal object to be kept together if it is not already, or to be broken if it
755is very long and the
756default keep-together is not appropriate.
757</p></li><li><p>
758For graphics files, made file extension matching case
759insensitive, and updated the list of graphics extensions.
760</p></li><li><p>
761Allow <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/calloutlist.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">calloutlist</code></a> to have block content before
762the first callout
763</p></li><li><p>
764Added <code class="literal">dbfo-need</code> processing instruction to provide
765soft page breaks.
766</p></li><li><p>
767Added implementation of existing but unused
768<a href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/html/default.image.width.html"><em class="parameter"><code>default.image.width</code></em></a> parameter for graphics.
769</p></li><li><p>
770Support DocBook NG <code class="sgmltag-element">tag</code> inline element.
771</p></li><li><p>
772It appears that XEP now supports Unicode characters in
773bookmarks. There is no further need to strip accents from
774characters.
775</p></li><li><p>
776Make <a href="http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/segmentedlist.html"><code class="sgmltag-element">segmentedlist</code></a> HTML markup
777more semantic and available to CSS styles.
778</p></li><li><p>
779Added <code class="literal">user.preroot</code> placeholder template to
780permit xsl-stylesheet and other PIs and comments to be
781output before the HTML root element.
782</p></li><li><p>
783Non-chunked legalnotice now gets an &lt;a
784name="id"&gt; element in HTML output
785so it can be referenced with xref or link.
786</p></li><li><p>
787In chunked HTML output, changed <code class="literal">link rel="home"</code> to <code class="literal">rel="start"</code>,
788and <code class="literal">link rel="previous"</code> to <code class="literal">rel="prev"</code>, per W3C HTML 4.01
789spec.
790</p></li><li><p>
791Added several patches to htmlhelp from W. Borgert
792</p></li><li><p>
793Added Bosnian locale file as common/bs.xml.
794</p></li></ul></div></div><div class="section" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a name="d0e2462"></a>Release 1.65.0</h2></div></div></div><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p>A number of important bug fixes, documented in <a href="WhatsNew" target="_top">WhatsNew</a>.
795</p></li><li><p>Added a workaround to allow these stylesheets to process DocBook NG
796documents. (It&#8217;s a hack that pre-processes the document to strip off the
797namespace and then uses <code class="function">exsl:node-set</code> to process
798the result.)
799</p></li><li><p>Added alternative indexing mechanism which has better
800internationalization support. New indexing method allows grouping of

1067</p></li><li><p>Added call to the &#8220;<span class="quote">*.head.content</span>&#8221; elements when writing
1068out long description chunks.
