Manual at web site

Manual at web site

[Peter Stephenson]

Is anyone able to update the manual at the web site (zsh.sunsite.dk) to
4.2.0? It looks like I updated it in March, but I have no time for this
kind of thing so even if I do it this time it will get out of data again.

If anyone does have time, it would be good to indicate the relevant
version of zsh on the top level.  It seems to be fairly well buried in
the HTML version (in fact, I can't find it after a cursory examination).

Thanks.
pws

It is at 4.2 isn't it?

I updated it in March using the files in the downloaded
zsh-4.2.0-doc.tar.bz2 file. You generated those which is why it says
"generated by Peter Stephenson".

What makes you think it isn't the 4.2.0 manual?

It'd be best to do that by adjusting the Yodl to put it in
automatically like it does for texinfo.

Ah.  I was looking at the sections in the wrong order, so I thought
there was one missing.  It's 4.2, unless you look at zsh.html, which
isn't usually linked to.  That *does* have a version number, and it's
4.0.3.

Yes, indeed.  It would be more useful information to have than
`generated by ... on ...', but I don't think you can change that.
I don't think texi2html is converting the front matter at all.

It's linked to from the "Top" link. The basic problem is that the zsh.html
file is missing from zsh-4.2.0-doc.tar.bz2. I remember noticing at the
time but was too lazy to install texi2html and generate one.

zsh.html is also where the version number has gone (as with 4.0.3).

I wonder why it doesn't use zsh*.html?  I've fixed it once before, I
think for the numbered bits.
