Subject: DOCBOOK: Split documents using psgml
I have a large document which is split into several files. The structure of the master file master.sgml is: ... <!ENTITY sect1-file SYSTEM "sect1.sgml" ... <sect1> <title>This is Section 1</title> §1-file; </sect1> ... In sect1.sgml: <para>Mary had a little lamb...</para> <sect2> <title>Gobbledygook</title> <para>...</para> </sect2> Now when I want to create another <sect2> using PSGML's C-c C-e command, the only valid completions PSGML will accept are "sect1" and "section". In sext1.sgml I have set the Emacs file-local variable "sgml-parent-document" to the value ("master.sgml" "sect1" "sect1" ("title")) Neither does it work with the value ("master.sgml" "sect1" "para") The documentation of the "sgml-parent-document" variable is somewhat confusing and I'd like to get some insight in the meaning of the components of the variable. From the documentation: (PARENT-FILE CONTEXT-ELEMENT* TOP-ELEMENT (HAS-SEEN-ELEMENT*)?) [...] CONTEXT-ELEMENT is a string, that is the name of an element type. It can occur 0 or more times and is used to set up exceptions and short reference map. Good candidates for these elements are the elements open when the entity pointing to the current file is used. Is that "sect1" because it is open in master.sgml? TOP-ELEMENT is a string that is the name of the element type of the top level element in the current file. The file should contain one instance of this element, unless the last (lisp) element of sgml-parent-document is a list. If it is a list, the top level of the file should follow the content model of top-element. HAS-SEEN-ELEMENT is a string that is the name of an element type. This element is satisfied in the content model of top-element. The current file (sect1.sgml) has *two* top level elements (para and sect2). Is that permissible at all or must the whole contents of sect1.sgml be wrapped in exactly one element? In my case I assume that the unless-part of TOP-ELEMENT's description holds, so I set sgml-parent-document to ("master.sgml" "sect1" "sect1" ("title")) What is the proper way to do it? Cheers Jens
