From 86ce218124eeca073621a153c5f3f830a90f1a74 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ralph Amissah Date: Fri, 11 Jul 2014 00:09:02 -0400 Subject: v5 v6: ao_composite, nested includes, .ssi (insert) can now include .ssi & .sst * .ssm can contain/include .sst or .ssi .sst files can be processed independently, they do not contain other files .ssi files have been only insertions of text & are not processed independently but as part of an ssm change proposed: .ssm unchanged, .sst unchanged, .ssi as before, but can include .sst or .ssi, so: files are only insertions & are not processed independently but as part of an .ssm or another .ssi i.e. as before with the addition that it like a .ssm can contain/include .sst or .ssi * requested feature, (Closes: #744408) User beware. In previous versions there has been a deliberate attempt to keep it easy to follow documents & not have to dig through different levels of includes, as this is more likely to lead to errors in markup. The idea of nested includes has not been attractive (messy for a document), however, this is now made possible, use with care * it is not as easy to see document structure at a glance, and structural errors may be introduced and will need to be taken care of (requiring document markup debugging) * allowing .ssi to also include other .ssi or .sst could lead to infinite recursion if an .ssi includes another which includes itself; stopping after an additional level of includes seems arbitrary, and possibly prone to error if you are dealing with many documents * requires testing * version bump, new behavior added to .ssi one of the 3 sisu filetypes --- data/doc/sisu/CHANGELOG_v5 | 29 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ data/doc/sisu/CHANGELOG_v6 | 29 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ data/doc/sisu/sisu.org | 15 ++++++++++++--- 3 files changed, 70 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) (limited to 'data') diff --git a/data/doc/sisu/CHANGELOG_v5 b/data/doc/sisu/CHANGELOG_v5 index ca6fecf2..a87629fa 100644 --- a/data/doc/sisu/CHANGELOG_v5 +++ b/data/doc/sisu/CHANGELOG_v5 @@ -42,6 +42,35 @@ http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/pkg/src/sisu_5.5.0.orig.tar.xz * auto name segment, extract "number" from heading, fix * check that all auto given number based seg names are unique +* ao_composite, nested includes, .ssi (insert) can include .ssi & .sst +~ .ssm can contain/include .sst or .ssi + .sst files can be processed independently, they do not contain other files + .ssi files have been only insertions of text & are not processed independently + but as part of an ssm + change proposed: + .ssm unchanged, + .sst unchanged, + .ssi as before, but can include .sst or .ssi, so: + files are only insertions & are not processed independently but as part of an + .ssm or another .ssi + i.e. as before with the addition that it like a .ssm can contain/include + .sst or .ssi +~ requested feature, (Closes: #744408) + User beware.
