Re: [lojban] Group Document Editing?



   I think you went off in the wrong direction. :)

   What I meant was that I wouldn't want to have to parse TeXinfo
   everytime I wanted to load the database.

I do not follow.  Texinfo is for documents.  

It sounds to me like you are talking about a readily updatable
database.  If so, at least one of the output formats should be plain
text, for reasons of efficiency, readability, and inputability into
other databases that I should to have to argue.

   Should I write this web editable dictionary ...  then I'll probably
   make some effort to provide the output in every format which the
   combination of a Perl script and an external utility can
   provide. (Docbook, HTML, ASCII, TeXInfo, PDF, PS, RTF(?), XML, etc,
   etc...)

Thank you!   That is the way to go!
