That's part of the problem, all the documentation was painstakingly converted from scribe format to linuxdoc-sgml, and by the time that was done most distributions weren't even carrying the tools anymore because everyone was switching to docbook-sgml, which seems to have been superceded by docbook-xml by now. So it is not just the text that gets outdated real fast, the tools to convert it into printable format seem to have a short lifespan as well. You might be able to find the required tools on an old RedHat-4.2/5.1 CD. JanReceived on 2004-04-27 12:56:15
