I'd recommend the stuff under http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/docbook/contrib/tools/ (or equivalent direct cvs connection) <advertisement> I find the emacs/doctoc stuff extremely useful for quick navigation. It reduces fold/unfold activities otherwise required to not get lost. </advertisement> Otherwise, with the stylesheets in tools/XMeTaL, XMeTaL seems a good candidate if you don't need strict control over source code formatting.
