Description Matthias Clasen 2003-06-05 08:00:01 UTC 
gtk, glib and pango install a number of tools


(glib-mkenums, gtk-query-immodules, gobject-query, etc). For some of these, 
we currently install man pages. I think it would be nice to


add a "Tools" section to the api reference manuals and document the tools 
there. This would




a) make it possible to link to the tools docs from other parts of the docs


b) make it easier to maintain and complete the tools docs (no need to learn 
troff macros in addition to docbook tags)




If manpages are still wanted, we can either try to get db2man to work for 
these or just add very short man pages referring to the api docs.
Comment 1 Matthias Clasen 2003-06-11 00:18:17 UTC 
Here is a patch which implements the necessary autotools machinery and
uses it for the gdk-pixbuf docs. It adds a new configure argument,
--enable-man. The man pages will not be regenerated unless
--enable-man is specified and the necessary tools (xsltproc and new
enough docbook stylesheets) are found.
