The various index.xml are generated and then can be run through xsltproc. htmlhelp.xls cannot cope with "title in para" so chm is out. But db2html.xsl can, I found it in /usr/share/xml/gnome/xslt/docbook/html. It produces xhtml output. Which can be viewed perfectly with Firefox. In my build I put the resulting files into a directory tree Ekiga help bg C de es fr uk *.xhtml figures I think these files can be included into the Win32 snapshots - I have attached my makefile for Kilian. In Windows it would be nice to click on Ekiga's help button and get the help. I would have to execute something like "start asolute-path-to\index.xhtml". Absolute path because the working directory may be different from program directory. If the user has installed firefox that is all. Remains the question where to put the help files eventually. When intstalling the GTK+ runtime environment you choose the language you wish to use. This can only be changed with administrative privileges, and it determines with which translation ekiga runs. Thinking of a future installer it makes no sense to install the manual in more than one language. Can the xhtml files + figures go into Ekiga\help ? Regards Michael
