SYNOPSIS

        package foo;
        use Meta::Baseline::Lang::Sgml qw();
        my($resu)=Meta::Baseline::Lang::Sgml::env();

DESCRIPTION

This package contains stuff specific to Sgml in the baseline: 0. verifies docbook source files using nsgmls/onsgmls/DOM. 1. converts docbook sources to various formats (postscript,Rtf,Pdf,Dvi,HTML, multi HTML,plain text,Tex etc...) using various tools (jade,openjade, sgmltools,sgml2). 2. authorizes entry for docbook sources into the baseline.

It is better to do convertions directly through openjade and not through tools for which the API is not yet stable like sgmltools or others.

TODO

-add the following sanity check to c2chec: that I never use sect1, sect2 etc but rather use section (the better way). Are there any other things I may want to check ? the KDE team said they have a restricted version of docbook that they use - check it out. Should I do it in Lang::Sgml or what ?!?
