## 1.2 How was this manual produced?

The bulk of the text was written directly in Emacs on a GNU/Linux system in a mixture of PHP and HTML. A number of PHP functions were used to automate the handling of formatting example code and figures.

To generate the images automatically in the img directory a custom awk-script is used to extract all the used image script from the manual. The sript then uses the text based HTML browser 'links' to render the PHP image script non-interactively and then store them in the 'img' directory.

To finally generate all pure HTML pages from the PHP sources again 'links' was used together with a custom Makefile.

The final set of HTML files was then processes by HTMLDOC to construct table of contents and chapter links.

The result of this process is what you are reading at the moment.
