169.0. "<syntax_keyword> and <line> tags in online.reference " by AITG::MARCUS () Tue Jul 25 1989 14:55

I tried building a book with online.reference and failed because it contained
<syntax_keyword> tags and it had <line> tags within a syntax section.  I was
able to build this same book using online.handbook.  Are you planning to remove
these restrictions from online.reference?  Or should I plan to continue to use
online.handbook?

    Yes, it is quite likely that the syntax tags will be recognized in the
    reference doctype in the future. Peter LaQuerre's doctype task force
    is looking into standardizing doctypes and my plan is to follow their
    lead. It's impractical to recreate all the hardcopy manual doctypes
    online and their work should simplify things. My preference would be
    for *one* online doctype for manuals that supported all those tags.
