Gabor,

The source file we use to parse the PHP documentation is the single HTML
file. This is why parsing other languages is easy to do. The process only
takes a couple of minutes. Once you have the PHP parser, conversion is
fairly automatic unless significant changes are made to the formatting.
(Then we might have to tweak it a little.) My partner, Gary, is driving from
Texas to Seattle (3 days) and he won't be able to put up the new file until
he gets back. I will keep you posted when it is ready for you to review. We
will apply all of the feedback you gave us.

Thanks again,

Mark

Hi Mark,

Looking forward to the corrected version. As usual, it would be good to
see, whether this format becomes successful, and then put effort into it
on our side - unless someone volunteers otherwise. We do have different
formats which have enough management problems already. If your
redistribution meets are licensing requirements and it is useable, then
I don't think that we would have a problem with linking to it on a
prominent place.

What is the source you use to parse the documentation?

Regards,
Gabor Hojtsy
