# The textproc/docbook port

## docbook-4.5p3 – technical documentation XML/SGML definitions

## Description

    DocBook is a DTD maintained by the DocBook Technical Committee of
    OASIS. It is particularly well suited to books and papers about
    computer hardware and software (though it is by no means limited
    to these applications).

    Because it is a large and robust DTD, and because its main structures
    correspond to the general notion of what constitutes a "book",
    DocBook has been adopted by a large and growing community of authors
    writing books of all kinds.

    DocBook is supported "out of the box" by a number of commercial
    tools, and there is rapidly expanding support for it in a number
    of free software environments.

    This ports installs all versions of the DocBook SGML DTD from
    versions 3.x and 4.x, and the last major release on the 2.x branch.
    The XML versions include the latest one, and a few other commonly
    used revisions.

    If you are creating a new document, always try to use the latest
    version of the DTD.

    There is a free online copy of O'Reilly's definitive guide to DocBook
