====== DocBook Markup Language ======

I was first introduced to this when I wanted to work with the [[http://svnbook.red-bean.com/trac/browser/trunk/src/en/book/|Subversion book source]].  I wrote a few guides in this format and although tedious to use at first, I found that being able to transform the sources to PDF, HTML (single and multi-page) and other formats was worth it.

From [[wp>DocBook#Pre_DocBook_v5.0|what I just read]], **DocBook V5.0** has been released and brings about some changes from the V4.2 that I had used.
