`makedoc' + `niceverb' - an alternative documentation system for LaTeX
======================================================================
The `nicetext' bundle offers "minimal" markup syntax for restricted
kinds of text: There should not be much more characters typed than
printed! -- mainly: quick documentation of (smaller) LaTeX packages
-- achieved by active characters and preprocessing similar to
`docstrip' ("opposite direction" however, incl. some txt to TeX).
New with release 0.3:
* `substr.tex' should typeset LaTeX quality documentation from
next available (on your install) substry.sty's ASCII/UTF-8 input
(works with me) -- first application of `niceverb''s "auto mode"
and `makedoc.sty' to a third-party package!
* `makedoc' simplified: single
\MakeInputJobDoc[<in>][<out>]{<header>}{<parser>}
generates a documentation file from the package file and
typesets it immediately (kind of \DocInput equivalent)
-- see `Using makedoc the simplest way' in `makedoc.pdf'
* `|...|' from `niceverb' typesets an inline frame box for setting-off
a command description, modifiable by hooks (e.g., \colorbox)
* `niceverb' syntax works in page headers, PDF bookmarks, and
`hyperref' labels and otherwise much better than before,
dis-/re-enableable featurewise as well as altogether
* documentation extended, lists of script commands
* configurable txt to TeX functionality or other replacements like
ASCII-arrows to arrow commands or inserting \index entries
(setting up expandable replacement chains slightly more comfortable)
-- try with templates and dialogue
* `fifinddo' works with character codes > 127, improved setup
* `makedoc' requires the `moreverb' package.
______________________________________________________________________
CATALOGUE: These packages may be compared with:
* easylatex, txt2latex, txt2tex
(typographical and TeX input enhancement);
* doc, gmdoc, lineno (awk in place of \DocInput);
* substr, datatool, ted, xstring, stringstrings, makematch, ...
(parsing)
