I. e. something like asciidoc --theme=./mytheme/mytheme.css Thank you </pre> Pau Garcia i Quiles 2012-05-22T23:24:40 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.formats.asciidoc/3209 <pre>Hi, just wondering if there's a way to use callouts within a table? Something like .An example table [options="header,footer"] |======================= |Col 1|Col 2 |Col 3 |1 |Item 1 |a |2 |Item 2 |b |3 |Item 3 |c |6 |Three items|d &lt;1&gt; |======================= |&lt;1&gt; callout text where &lt;1&gt; should be linked with the relevant callout text. Should I use another syntax or change some table processing related settings? Cheers Davide </pre> davide.cavestro 2012-05-17T09:32:35 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.formats.asciidoc/3199 <pre>Hi, I'm trying to put a bulleted list in the middle of an item of a labeled list, like so: http://sprunge.us/bQTM The problem I am having is that I can't figure out how to end the bulleted list item while continuing the labeled list item. The sentence starting with "When no 'file' or 'action' is present" in the snippet above is supposed to get indented once, but is currently aligned with the leftmost margin. When I add a single plus (+) character on the line before it for a list continuation, it gets indented to match the bulleted list instead of the labeled list. I searched google and looked through the documentation regarding labeled and bulleted lists, and found no answer. Is there any way to do what I'm trying to accomplish? </pre> Buce 2012-05-07T17:45:48 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.formats.asciidoc/3193 <pre>Hi, How to control the generated pdf page size when using asciidoc's a2x --fop? I want to change from the default A4 to letter page size. I found this, ftp://ftp.uni-magdeburg.de/pub/mirror/hpux.ask.uni-karlsruhe.de/PostScript/a2x-1.0/a2x-1.0.man.html which says, *-a4, -letter, -legal* choose upon paper sizes. The default is *-a4. * but found that it does not work with the a2x from asciidoc: $ a2x --fop -letter . . . a2x: error: no such option: -l Please help.

Today, even the DNS is gone. Does any one has a local copy? Can we host a copy on the AsciiDoc official site please? Thanks </pre> Tong Sun 2012-05-07T02:44:54 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.formats.asciidoc/3185 <pre>Hello, there is an option that captions of figures, tables, examples can be numbered.

Thanks John </pre> John T 2012-05-03T13:37:51 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.formats.asciidoc/3176 <pre>Hello! ?ve started workeing on several HTML docs which I want to convert into AsciiDoc and make a book out of it (nice pdf output). What is the correct procedure to get text floating (left or right) around image which could possibly work for *both* HTML &amp; PDF output? If that's not possible, then we'll be happy to get it right in PDF generated by dblatex back-end? Reading the docs (21.1.4) Images section is a bit confusing since once it stated: image:&lt;target&gt;[&lt;attributes&gt;] and a little bit below: image::images/tiger.png["Tiger image",align="left"] so it looks that the latter is for block and not inline macro? I use: image::images/file.png[align="left",scale=200%] but the image is centered and we do not ± If we use image:images alternative, still - no floating and no proper alignment? We use asciidoc 8.6.7. Any hint? Sincerely, Gour </pre> Gour 2012-05-03T13:02:03 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.formats.asciidoc/3170 <pre>Hello All, not sure if this is an AsciiDoc question, but maybe someone could help with this. I like to use Asciidoc with slidy or deck.js to prepare my slides. Probably the only thing I'm missing is preparation of "notes" which I could later print for myself to learn, and which should not appear on the slides. Does anyone know if slidy or deck.js support such option? Can AsciiDoc help with this somehow? -- Regards, Tomek Kaczanowski http://practicalunittesting.com </pre> Tomek Kaczanowski 2012-04-24T19:44:40 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.formats.asciidoc/3165 <pre>Hi, I would like to update the fedora package for asciidoc as our software's documentation requires an asciidoc &gt;= 8.6.2 to be built and fedora still ships with 8.4.5 (even in rawhide). One of the patches no longer applies cleanly and I wanted to see if it was implemented upstream or not. It's called datadir (see attached asciidoc-8.4.5-datadir.patch). And I couldn't figure it out.. Fails with: 1 out of 2 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file asciidoc.py.rej 4 out of 4 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file Makefile.in.rej The other one has been integrated[1] so I'm droppping it.

Regards, Charles </pre> Charles Moulliard 2012-04-17T21:51:27 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.formats.asciidoc/3152 <pre>hi, it seems not possible to pass arguments along to the browsers defined by the variable `LYNX' (and `W3M') in `a2x.conf' directly in the `a2x' call (similar to, e.g., ` --dblatex-opts'), so I tried to edit `a2x.conf' like LYNX = "lynx -nolist -width=80" but this does not work since `a2x' explicitly double-quotes the `LYNX' variable when constructing the call, so `LYNX' is treated as a command name containing blanks (which is not found). I removed this quoting in a copy of a2x (version 8.6.6, line 768-9) like cmd = "%s -dump %s &gt; %s" % (LYNX, html_file, text_file) shell(cmd) which then works just fine. questions/remarks: </pre> j. van den hoff 2012-04-17T10:25:31 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.formats.asciidoc/3141 <pre>Just to let you all know my talk at OSCON has been accepted: http://www.oscon.com/oscon2012/public/schedule/detail/24815 I intend to discuss, among other things, the crucial role AsciiDoc has played (and continues to play) in making my Programming iOS 4 and Programming iOS 5 books possible.

If i try to use: http://github.com/Normation/[GitHub repository] in my asciidoc source, it doesn't work. a2x.py -f epub --doctype=book -a docinfo1 --dblatex-opts "-P latex.output.revhistory=0" foo.txt a2x: ERROR: xmllint --nonet --noout --valid foo.xml returned non-zero exit status 1 but if i use http://github.com/normation/[GitHub repository] in my asciidoc source, it works. I suppose it's a bug from inlines macro. Thanks. Nicolas PERRON </pre> Nicolas PERRON 2012-04-11T13:40:53 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.text.formats.asciidoc/3128 <pre>Is there a way to store a string or block of text in a constant, such that if I have the same line or phrase repeated numerous times in my document, I can insert it by reference, and change it only once where it is defined so the change propagates throughout the document? I thought I might be able to do this with macros, but it wasn't clear to me how.

I guess this can make another entry to http://www.methods.co.nz/asciidoc/index.html#X6 :) It is also a good moment to congratulate and thank you! AsciiDoc is a fantastic tool and I can not imagine writing a book using anything else! I will soon write a blog post devoted to my experience of writing book with AsciiDoc and gather there some information that others could use. Thank for your patience - you answered a lot of my questions and as a result I was able to prepare a really nice-looking book. :) -- Regards, Tomek Kaczanowski http://practicalunittesting.com </pre> Tomek Kaczanowski 2012-04-04T08:18:26 Search the mailing list at Gmane query http://search.gmane.org/?group=$group=gmane.text.formats.asciidoc
