Re: example code

[Alexander Kirillov <kirillov math sunysb edu>]

There are several standard ways to insert code from a separate file. 
Assuming your example code is in example.c, you could use one of these
methods: 

a. define in the beginning of the document   
<!ENTITY example SYSTEM "example.c">

and then use 
<programlisting>
&example;
</programlisting 


b. use 
<imageobject> <imagedata fileref="example.c" format="linespecific"/>
</imageobject>

(this is a dirty but widely used trick). DocBook 4.2 (at the moment,
still a draft) will introduce proper way of doing it: 
  
<textobject> <textdata fileref="example.c" format="linespecific"/>
</textobject>
