On certain tables, add top and bottom borders to table header and a bottom border to the table. This matches what those tables in the old pdfs looked like. the <?dbfo keep-together='always'> prevents tables from splitting across pages. Useful for tiny tables.

2011-03-25Documentation: add Docbook external references supportGaetan Nadon5-25/+47
When writing technical documentation, it is often necessary to cross reference to other information. When that other information is not in the current document, additional support is needed, namely <olink>. A new feature with version 1.7 of xorg-sgml-doctools adds references to other documents within or outside this package. This feature works with PDF, HTML, PS (and epub?) generated documents and will generate links to the other versions of the same type, i.e. html docs will link to other html docs, and pdf docs will link to other pdf docs. This patch adds technical support for this feature but does not change the content of the documentation as seen by the end user. Each book or article must generate a database containing the href of sections that can be referred to from another document. This database is installed in DATAROOTDIR/sgml/X11/dbs. There is a requirement that the value of DATAROOTDIR for xorg-sgml-doctools and for the package documentation is the same. This forms a virtual document tree. This database is consulted by other documents while they are being generated in order to fulfill the missing information for linking. Refer to the xorg-sgml-doctools for further technical information.

2010-11-10ReleaseNotes.xml: Update credits section for 7.6 RC1Alan Coopersmith1-233/+233
The list of people to credit in this release was created by running the script at https://gist.github.com/671819 with my current list of katamari modules/versions to get a unified ChangeLog for all katamari modules. For xcb modules, since this is their first inclusion, this went back to the dawn of the xcb project. From that list, everyone listed in the long form log output under either Author: or *-by: was collected and added to the "These people contributed in some way to X11R&relvers; since the release of X11R&prevrelvers;" list. The output was manually edited to remove duplicates which appeared to be the same person, and non-identifiable usernames ("root", "xgi0007", etc.) Additionally, the lead freedesktop.org sysadmin was manually added. For the second list, "This product includes software developed by", the COPYING files in all katamari modules were mined for Copyright notices and merged with the existing list.

2010-11-03Remove NetBSD & OpenBSD platform docsAlan Coopersmith3-1266/+0
Matthieu Herrb explains: "I would rather remove this document (and its brother NetBSD.xml) completely. It was written for times where XFree86 was not yet included in OpenBSD binary distributions and people had to download, build and install it by themselve. Now (well it's been more than 10 years) that X is included with OpenBSD distributions, this document is mostly and contains many other out of date information."
