RE: [docbook-apps] profile chunking

Jirka,

I tried the workaround you provided and it works fine. There is one question I have, if I wanted to just output the "UNIX HELP" without outputing the content that does not have any attributes or any other attributes - what would I need to do.

I tried to apply Mauritz's suggestions but then it gives me "ambiguous errors"

Please let me know if this is possible.

Thanks & Regards,
Sarah

So if I understand it correctly, you want different content for help and different for manuals (plus differences for Unix and VMS). In this situation, I would use something like:

<section condition="help" os="unix">
... this goes only to help for unix ...
</section>

<section condition="manual" os="unix">
... this goes only to manual for unix ...
</section>

<section condition="manual;help" os="unix"> ... this goes only for unix help and unix manual ...
</section>

<section os="unix">
... the same as previous ...
</section>

Does this work in your situation?
