From 8593e1ff0904422e75b88165343afba0153606e7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Thomas G. Lockhart" <lockhart@fourpalms.org> Date: Tue, 1 Jun 1999 17:26:18 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Make sure that only one intro is included in the integrated doc. Multiple intros cause trouble since they have some section elements (e.g. "y2k.sgml") in common leading to duplicate labels. Include emacs formatting hints in the intro*.sgml sources. --- doc/src/sgml/intro-ag.sgml | 60 ++++++++----- doc/src/sgml/intro-pg.sgml | 110 +++++++++++++---------- doc/src/sgml/intro.sgml | 180 ++++++++++++++++++++----------------- doc/src/sgml/postgres.sgml | 18 +++- 4 files changed, 212 insertions(+), 156 deletions(-) diff --git a/doc/src/sgml/intro-ag.sgml b/doc/src/sgml/intro-ag.sgml index 9693d3a68ed..83d18555c34 100644 --- a/doc/src/sgml/intro-ag.sgml +++ b/doc/src/sgml/intro-ag.sgml @@ -1,28 +1,42 @@ -<Chapter Id="intro-ag"> -<TITLE>Introduction</TITLE> + <chapter id="intro-ag"> + <title>Introduction</title> -<Para> - This document is the Administrator's Manual for the - <Ulink url="http://postgresql.org/"><ProductName>PostgreSQL</ProductName></Ulink> - database management system, originally developed at the University - of California at Berkeley. + <para> + This document is the Administrator's Manual for the + <ulink url="http://postgresql.org/"><productname>PostgreSQL</productname></ulink> + database management system, originally developed at the University + of California at Berkeley. -<ProductName>PostgreSQL</ProductName> is based on - <Ulink url="http://s2k-ftp.CS.Berkeley.EDU:8000/postgres/postgres.html"> - <ProductName>Postgres release 4.2</ProductName></Ulink>. -The <ProductName>Postgres</ProductName> project, - led by Professor Michael Stonebraker, was sponsored by the - Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (<Acronym>DARPA</Acronym>), the - Army Research Office (<Acronym>ARO</Acronym>), the National Science - Foundation (<Acronym>NSF</Acronym>), and ESL, Inc. -</Para> + <productname>PostgreSQL</productname> is based on + <ulink url="http://s2k-ftp.CS.Berkeley.EDU:8000/postgres/postgres.html"> + <productname>Postgres release 4.2</productname></ulink>. + The <productname>Postgres</productname> project, + led by Professor Michael Stonebraker, was sponsored by the + Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (<acronym>DARPA</acronym>), the + Army Research Office (<acronym>ARO</acronym>), the National Science + Foundation (<acronym>NSF</acronym>), and ESL, Inc. + </para> -&info;
