Did you mean to say =E2=80=9Cabsolute paths=E2=80=9D? If not, then you=E2= =80=99re arguing against yourself here. Relative links within the docs *ar= e* what allow the docs to work when hosted off cygwin.com, as in my info(1)= example. Otherwise, a link that should be an internal cross-reference tur= ns into an external web page link. Also keep in mind that DocBook has *four* different styles of links: = , , , and . They mean different things, and give diffe= rent effects. Depending on the stylesheets you use, they can even change b= ehavior between different output types. http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/CrossRefs.html http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/Ulinks.html http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/Olinking.html -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
