Dear Documentators!

I like your HTML manuals, and I very often use GIMP. I'm working as a system administrator, and I want to create manuals like yours (eg. this http://docs.gimp.org/en/preface.html#gimp-team).

I'm looking for the (programming) language / standard / syntax information of the manual pages, and that software, what can generate these nice HTML pages.

Can you tell me these informations?

This manual is a mix of different technologies.

xml-docbook - for the manual structure and HTML/PDF conversion xml2po - for the internationalization of the doc make (via autoconf/automake) - for the test/updated of the po files/compilation

Please note that this approach could be seen as trying to kill mosquitos with a bazooka for any doc less than 100 pages...

There could be many other (easier) way to the same.

See google for markdown for an example, or you can consider using a wiki (like mediawiki) with an pdf/epub plugin.

Your mileage may vary.
