Chapter 14. Writing documentation for DotNetProcessing with DocBook

According to Dave Pawson's DocBook FAQ DocBook is:

	DocBook provides a system for writing structured documents using SGML or XML. It is particularly well-suited to books and papers about computer hardware and software, though it is by no means limited to them.
--Dave Pawson's DocBook FAQ

The good thing about DocBook is that when you write documentation you do exactly this, writing documentation. You don't care about the format, only about the contents. At any time you can apply a stylesshet to your document and generate the resulting HTML, PDF, PS, CHM, RTF, TXT, etc.

The source docbook code for DotNetProcessing documentation (what you are reading now) can be seen here. It is also available by CVS for updating purposes. See the CVS DotNetProcessing documentation section. GemDoc is used to generate the final documents.
