| 6 | Changes since Guile 1.3.4: | |
| 7 | ||
| 8 | * It's now possible to build HTML documentation as well as Info | |
| 9 | ||
| 10 | The guile-doc distribution now supports building HTML versions of the | |
| 11 | Guile tutorial and reference manual, in addition to the standard Info | |
| 12 | documentation. To enable this, include the `--enable-html' option | |
| 13 | when you run `./configure': | |
| 14 | ||
| 15 | ./configure --enable-html | |
| 16 | ||
| 17 | HTML documentation is installed in $(prefix)/html/guile-$(VERSION). | |

| 20 | Changes since Guile 1.0 (Sun 5 Jan 1997): | |
| 21 | ||
| 22 | * The current documentation approach, recommended by Jim Blandy, is to | |
| 23 | have: (*) a tutorial with the pedagogical style of guile-user, and a | |
| 24 | non-dry reference manual in the style of the most excellent GNU libc | |
| 25 | reference manual: the reference manual should be complete, but at the | |
| 26 | same time it should have an introductory screen for each major topic, | |
| 27 | which can be referenced if the user goes "up" a level in the info | |
| 28 | documentation. | |
