ANNOUNCE: Modular DocBook Stylesheets version 1.08beta7

[Norman Walsh <ndw@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I just finished uploading 1.08 beta 7.  You can get it from

  http://nwalsh.com/docbook/dsssl/db108b7.zip

Give it a whirl and report any problems.  Next on the agenda,
patching it so it'll work with DocBk30 XML.  Then a non-beta
release, I promise.

P.S. Here's the print changelog:

Version 1.08beta7, 06 May 1998

Completely rewrote support for title pages. Title pages are now
supported on all division- and component-level elements. Title
pages are now supported on Articles, for example.

Fixed the TOC header to be the correct size in Articles and
Parts. Added support for RTF heading-level to TOC header.

Added support for PubDate in BiblioEntrys. If PubDate is
present, it will be used. Otherwise the Year in the Copyright
will be used.

Added support for the Scale attribute on Graphic and
InlineGraphic.

Added French localization.

I think I had the distinction between ANSI and K&R style
function synopsis backwards. So I reversed it.

Added %funcsynopsis-decoration% to control whether or not the
elements in a FuncSynopsis should be decorated (return types
bold, parameters italic, etc.).

Removed %generate-titlepage%. Added %generate-element-titlepage%
for Set, Book, Part, Reference, and Article.

Replaced %generate-toc% with %generate-element-toc%

Replaced %generate-lot-list% with %generate-element-lot-list%

Added %titlepage-in-info-order%. If true, then the elements on a
generated titlepage occur in the order that they appear in the
corresponding *Info element. Otherwise, they appear in a fixed
(but configurable) order specified by the stylesheet.

Added %generate-part-toc-on-titlepage% and
%generate-reference-toc-on-titlepage%. If true then the TOC for
Parts and References occur on the title page for those elements,
otherwise they appear on a page sequence following the title
page.

Added %generate-partinfo-on-titlepage%.  If true then the
contents of the PartIntro element occurs on the title page of
the containing element (Part or Reference).

Added %generate-heading-level%. If true, the Jade extension
which outputs the Word heading level is used on the titles of
divisions and components.

Added %cals-display-align% to control the horizontal alignment
of CALS tables on the page. The default is 'start.

Added html-filenames to all the REFENTRY comments in the
prparam.dsl file so that they can be propagated to the
documentation. I'm basically sacraficing any attempt at
maintaining 8.3 filenames in the documentation in favor of
consistent filenames. Since switching to all-element-number, the
filenames for the RefEntrys change completely with every release
which is a bit of a maintainance headache.

Fixed some table bugs. Missing cells should now be generated
within and at the end of rows.
