Hi Carlos,

I want a GUI to write man pages. Rather, to translate them to Spanish, so the choice of using "man" is not mine.
I'm not willing to learn trof/roff whatever. I wish something like openoffice, or at least, LyX.
I have tried LyX, with no luck. After exporting to sgml, I can not create the man because it either is not generated, or the converter balks out, or I get absurd errors by the ton I have no idea howto solve:
cer@nimrodel:~/lyx> sgml2txt -man testing_manpage.sgml [... Removed errors... ]
I would consider this process as outdated. The preferred way of getting a manpage is to use the XSLT stylesheets thesedays.
Try to use this:
$ DB=/usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/nwalsh/current/ $ # Maybe skip the following command: $ xmllint --valid --noout testing_manpage.sgml $ xsltproc $DB/manpages/docbook.xsl testing_manpage.sgml
Maybe you have to convert your SGML file into XML first, depends on your file.
