Homebrew: Documentation Tools

WARNING: UNMAINTAINED

I no longer use macOS for a desktop/laptop OS, and do not use Homebrew on Linux, so am not in a position to test fixes to this repository. Please either fork this (I will link to a maintained fork) or provide patches: I will merge, untested, sane-looking fixes.

These formulae are for Homebrew, a package management system for MacOS.

What is here

Stuff related to documentation building tools, not already in Homebrew.

I'm one of the Exim maintainers, and have handed in my Zsh commit bit for safekeeping but still work on Zsh occasionally. Both products build their documentation with tools which are less common than some alternatives.

This repo is to make it easier for me to work on the documentation on macOS.

Anything which catches my fancy but is too obscure for Homebrew, which I suspect will involve dealing with miscellaneous protocols in various ways.

• Exim tools:
  • sdop: Typesetting tool to convert a subset of DocBook XML to PostScript
  • xfpt: Convert xfpt markup into DocBook XML
  • You will also need ghostscript from homebrew-core, for the ps2pdf command

How do I install these formulae?

Just brew tap philpennock/doctools and then brew install <formula>.

If the formula conflicts with one from mxcl/master or another tap, you can brew install philpennock/protocols/<formula>.
