MEINPROC4(8)							 KDE User's Manual						      MEINPROC4(8)

NAME

       meinproc4 - KDE translator for XML

SYNOPSIS

       meinproc4 [--help] [Generic-options] [Qt-options] [KDE-options] [--cache file] [--check] [--htdig] [--srcdir] [--param key=value] [[-o |
		 --output] file] [--stdout] [--stylesheet xsl] docbook_file

DESCRIPTION

       meinproc4 converts DocBook files to HTML.

GENERIC OPTIONS

       --author
	      Show author information.

       --help Show help about options.

       --help-all
	      Show all options.

       --help-kde
	      Show KDE specific options.

       --help-qt
	      Show Qt specific options.

       --license
	      Show license information.

       -v--version
	      Show version information

APPLICATION OPTIONS

       --cache file
	      Create a cache file for the document

       --check
	      Check the document for validity

	      The output can be a bit daunting, since one small mistake can cause a cascade of errors.	The trick is to look at the  first  error,
	      fix that error, save the file, and run meinproc4 again.

       --htdig
	      Create a ht://dig compatible index

       -o, --output file
	      Output whole document to file.

       --stdout
	      Output whole document to stdout.

       --stylesheet xsl
	      Stylesheet to use

       --srcdir dir
	      Set the root directory to look for kdelibs

       --param key=value
	      Set parameters to pass to the stylesheet.

USAGE

       The most common way to run meinproc4 is simply as

       meinproc4 docbook-file

	where  docbook-file  is usually index.docbook. This command creates HTML pages from the DocBook file. Note that these pages are only view-
       able in KDE-based browsers (like Konqueror).

       If you need to view the HTML output in another browser (for example, if you're placing it on line), use

       meinproc4 --stylesheet stylesheet-name docbook-file

	where stylesheet-name is the full path to one of the XSL stylesheets in  $KDEDIR/share/apps/ksgmltools/customization.  To  produce  output
       suitable for the web, you can use kde-web.xsl or kde-chunk-online.xsl. See the README file in that directory for more details.

       There are probably tons of bugs. Use bugs.kde.org: http://bugs.kde.org to report them.
