Dear Lispers,

I made the effort to massage the original Postscript version of the CLX
manual into one big SGML document, which is finally converted into a
set of HTML files for online and offline browsing.

So, feel free to visit 

    http://www.uni-karlsruhe.de/~unk6/clxman/

and enjoy. The manual in online browsable there, but for convenience I
also offer a tar file of all HTML files for offline browsing. The SGML
source plus the DTD is also available. The DTD is a hacked HTML-3.2
DTD, the produced HTML files itself are validated against the HTML-4.0
transitional DTD (-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN).

Since now there is a SGML source of the document, it is actually
modifiable again. During my efforts to implement the alternative CLX
interface for CLISP I found a couple of errata in the manual and plan
to update it to match the actual implementation of CLX again. Any
opinions?

Although I denied the availability of the HTML generation tool, I
decided lately to make it available too; you may download it from
http://www.uni-karlsruhe.de/~unk6/clxman/downloads/gentool.tar.gz. The
tar file contains a set of lisp files and no README, start with run.lisp.

NOTE: The tool itself is *not* under any copying policy yet but carry
a simple copyright notice. So if you want to distribute or use the
tool for something else, please contact me.  
[Hope that is suffiecient to protect my rights on the code.]

Since I am affraid I did not understood SGML fully yet, could somebody
with deep understanding of SGML please skim my SGML source, the DTD
and the conversion tool to warn me, if I did something fundamentally
wrong?

Is there demand for a texinfo version of the manual too?

Thank you,
	Gilbert
