Re: [docbook-apps] XSL Appendix titles

["Bob Stayton" <bobs@sagehill.net>]

For some reason, the TOC templates do not use the gentext mechanism.  I 
think perhaps they should, but they don't at the present.

So a separate customization is needed.  I provided one in my book:

Just tried this.

Ok so far.  At least as far as getting the section title correct.

I'd like the entry in the ToC to be "Appendix %n. %t" as well.
Is that possible ?
Presumably it just involves redefining the text for a different context
?
If so, which context, and how could I find out if I wasn't asking here ?


Appreciatively,
Richard.
