PACKAGING

- Directories should be owned

- Use macros to ease porting

- install-catalog has problems with updates because the post-install

  is called before the post-uninstall

		PRINTING

- Support hyperlinks in acroread

Hyperlinks are rendered nicely when converted to PDF, but aren't

dynamical in acroread (they are just underlined text)

- Support Asian languages on printing

Already did some tries with hlatex (Korean)

- Italian does not seem to work when printing

Solved with the new packaging of jadetex?

- Tables aren't rendered nicely when printing

The second line of text and the following ones have no margin

- Add a switch to control TeX verbosity

		BACKENDS

- Do a new text backend based on html2text instead of lynx

Merge Jochem's stuff with the current text backend. The choice of

the method should be passed through the command line or through an

configuration file.

- Do a FOT backend, MIF backend and a palm backend

Should be easy. Use -V and -t variables.

- Backend options

Provide an -e option in jw to pass directly a string to the backend

through the SGML_EXTRA_OPTS variable. The html backend then can pass

it to Jade through the -V option.

- Configuration file for backends

Pass a variable holding the name of the initialization file to the

backend.

(is this really needed?)

		JW

- Configuration variables for jw

Simpler and more powerful to use "aliases" ?

Name:           SGML_BACKEND_DIR

    Content:    Directory containing the backends.

    Default:    $SGML_BASE_DIR/backends/

    Example:	/usr/share/sgml/docbook/docbook-utils-0.2/backends/

    Notes:      This directory should contain nothing else than backends. 

                This way a program can tell the user about available

                backends by just doing "ls $SGML_BACKEND_DIR" or similar.

Name:           SGML_BACKEND

    Content:    The name of the default backend

    Default:    html

(txt would be more neutral, but then be painful to the docbook users)

    Example:	ps

Name:           SGML_FRONTEND_DIR

    Content:    Directory containing the frontends.

    Default:    $SGML_BASE_DIR/frontends/

    Example:	/usr/share/sgml/docbook/docbook-utils-0.2/frontends/

    Notes:      This directory should contain nothing else than frontends. 

                This way a program can tell the user about available

                frontends by just doing "ls $SGML_FRONTEND_DIR" or similar.

Name:           SGML_FRONTEND

    Content:    The name of the default frontend

    Default:    docbook

(sgml would be more neutral, but then be painful to the docbook users)

    Example:	tei

    Notes:	At the time of determining the frontend, the frontend is not

		known, so it is /etc/sgml/sgml.conf or $HOME/.sgml.conf

		that is used as a configuration file.

Name:           SGML_HELPERS_DIR

    Content:    The name of the directory where reside the scripts that

		can be called by the backends and the frontends

    Default:    $SGML_BASE_DIR/helpers/

    Example:	/usr/share/sgml/docbook/docbook-utils-0.2/helpers/

Name:           SGML_OUTPUT_DIR

    Content:    The directory to write the converted output files to.

    Default:    .

    Example:	/tmp

    Note:	This is not backend-specific. If for example the html

		backend wants to put the resulting files in an directory named

		HTML, it can override or refine this setting.

Name:           SGML_FILE

    Content:    The filename of the SGML source-file to convert.

    Default:    index.sgml

    Example:	index.docbook

Name:		SGML_JADE

    Content:	The flavour of jade parser to execute

    Default:	jade

    Example:    openjade

    Notes:	This variable is unused if using another parser

Name:           SGML_STYLESHEET

    Content:    The stylesheet to use

    Default:    (unset)

    Example:	/usr/share/sgml/docbook/kde-0.1/stylesheet/kde.dsl#html

An "alias" on the contrary would concentrate all the options passed on the command

line into a single symbol. Example:

      htmlkde <=> -c /usr/share/sgml/docbook/kde-0.1/catalog

                  -d /usr/share/sgml/docbook/kde-0.1/kde.dsl#html
