Subject: DOCBOOK: Re: Looking for a tag analogous to HTML's <code>
/ Brian Lalonde <brianiacus@yahoo.com> was heard to say: | Is there a tag for marking up source code statements and constructs inline? There's an odd gap here, probably stemming from the fact that inline code is often something else (a function, a variable name, etc.). The grab-bag for this is probably <literal>. What sort of statements do you want to put inline? | Another mapping from HTML I have not found is the title attribute. | I have, in the past, used this extensively to provide additional detail WRT | links. This came up recently[1]. Unfortunately, no good proposals for how to address the problem have followed. | I am tempted to use xreflabel; would this be abusive? Definitely. Abusing role is probably a better bet. Be seeing you, norm [1] http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/docbook-apps/200201/msg00370.html -- Norman Walsh <ndw@nwalsh.com> | What is more wonderful than the http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/ | delight which the mind feels when Chair, DocBook Technical Committee | it *knows*? This delight is not | for anything beyond the knowing, | but is in the act of knowing. It | is the satisfaction of a primary | instinct.--Mark Rutherford
