Convert the ANSI Common Lisp draft to Texinfo
License: GNU General Public License v2.0
NB This is an archive of Jesper Harder's dpans2texi script, available under the GPLv2; the original site has disappeared. dpans2texi.el dpans2texi.el converts the TeX sources of the draft ANSI Common Lisp standard (dpANS) to the [2]Texinfo format. The purpose is to take advantage of the superior qualities of the Info reader in Emacs compared with other formats, viz. * Single-key index lookup with completion: i. * Single-key full text regexp search: s * Convenient symbol lookup from source code: C-h C-i There are [3]various existing ways to do the latter, though, by opening a web browser at the right spot in the [4]Common Lisp HyperSpec. But this means leaving Emacs ... a Bad Thing(TM). Some of the information conveyed by the selection of fonts in the hard-copy version is lost in the translation to Texinfo. I've also made frivolous use of Unicode characters to represent various glyphs -- you might need to [5]supplement your fontset to avoid empty boxes in Emacs. As a side effect of using Texinfo you can also produce a HTML version. This wasn't really a target, but I think the result is quite decent nevertheless. I won't distribute the converted files, as the draft doesn't grant me permission to do so. So, you need to run the converter on the original TeX files yourself. Caveat: The translation may have introduced errors, please report discrepancies with the hard-copy version. Q: Why didn't you just use Bill Schelter's [8]Texinfo rendition? A: Good question! I didn't learn about it until I had finished most of my converter, so I might as well do the rest. I think my version is a bit more polished (I also had the advantage of some handy new Texinfo commands introduced since 1994). Besides, having a converter means that it's fairly easy to customize aspects of the conversion to your preference. Installation * You need Texinfo 4.7 (released 10-04-2004) or later. * Get dpans2texi-1.03.tar.gz and unpack the tarball. * Run ./configure * Run make wget to download the .tex files with wget (or download them directly from [10]parcftp.xerox.com/pub/cl/dpANS3 and [11]parcftp.xerox.com/pub/cl/dpANS3R to the same directory). * Build the info files with make, and finally install them in your Info directory with make install * To use C-h C-i in Lisp mode to look up the symbol at point in the spec, add the following to your .emacs file: (require 'info-look) (info-lookup-add-help :mode 'lisp-mode :regexp "[^][()'\" \t\n]+" :ignore-case t :doc-spec '(("(ansicl)Symbol Index" nil nil nil))) * Run make html if you want a HTML version. You can also produce Docbook and XML versions with the xml and docbook targets. Problems Bugs in Texinfo and Emacs rather than the converter as such: * Backreferences from the list of figures are broken in Info. * makeinfo crashes on the XML, Docbook and HTML targets on Mac OS X. * Emacs on Mac OS X doesn't display all characters even though the font does contain them.
