<para>If the value of the

|
|
|

<para>The difference between the two subsets is that

<varlistentry>

<listitem>
|

<simpara>a string representing an roff/groff escape-code (with

</para>
|
|
<para>The value of <parameter>man.charmap.subset.profile</parameter>
|
|
is evaluated as an XPath expression at run-time to select a portion of
|
|
the roff character map to use. You can tune the subset used by adding
|
|
or removing parts. For example, if you need to use a wide range of
|
|
mathematical operators in a document, and you want to have them
|
|
converted into roff markup properly, you might add the following:
|
|
|
|
<literallayout class="monospaced"> @*[local-name() = 'block'] ='MathematicalOperators' </literallayout>
|
|
|
|
That will cause a additional set of around 67 additional "math"
|
|
characters to be converted into roff markup. </para>
|
|
|
|
<note>
|
|
<para>Depending on which XSLT engine you use, either the EXSLT
|
|
<function>dyn:evaluate</function> extension function (for xsltproc or
|
|
Xalan) or <function>saxon:evaluate</function> extension function (for
|
|
Saxon) are used to dynamically evaluate the value of
|
|
<parameter>man.charmap.subset.profile</parameter> at run-time. If you
|
|
don't use xsltproc, Saxon, Xalan -- or some other XSLT engine that
|
|
supports <function>dyn:evaluate</function> -- you must either set the
|
|
value of the <parameter>man.charmap.use.subset</parameter> parameter
|
|
to zero and process your documents using the full character map
|
|
instead, or set the value of the
|
|
<parameter>man.charmap.enabled</parameter> parameter to zero instead
|
|
(so that character-map processing is disabled completely.</para>
|
|
</note>
|
|
|
|
<para>An alternative to using
|
|
<parameter>man.charmap.subset.profile</parameter> is to create your
|
|
own custom character map, and set the value of
|
|
<parameter>man.charmap.uri</parameter> to the URI/filename for
|
|
that. If you use a custom character map, you will probably want to
|
|
include in it just the characters you want to use, and so you will
|
|
most likely also want to set the value of
|
|
<parameter>man.charmap.use.subset</parameter> to zero.</para>
|
|
<para>You can create a
|
|
custom character map by making a copy of the <link xlink:href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/snapshot/xsl/manpages/charmap.groff.xsl">standard roff character map</link> provided in the distribution, and
|
|
then adding to, changing, and/or deleting from that.</para>
|
|
|
|
<caution>
|
|
<para>If you author your DocBook XML source in UTF-8 or UTF-16
|
|
encoding and aren't sure what OSes or environments your man-page
|
|
output might end up being viewed on, and not sure what version of
|
|
nroff/groff those environments might have, you should be careful about
|
|
what Unicode symbols and special characters you use in your source and
|
|
what parts you add to the value of
|
|
<parameter>man.charmap.subset.profile</parameter>.</para>
|
|
<para>Many of the escape codes used are specific to groff and using
|
|
them may not provide the expected output on an OS or environment that
|
|
uses nroff instead of groff.</para>
|
|
<para>On the other hand, if you intend for your man-page output to be
|
|
viewed only on modern systems (for example, GNU/Linux systems, FreeBSD
|
|
systems, or Cygwin environments) that have a good, up-to-date groff,
|
|
then you can safely include a wide range of Unicode symbols and
|
|
special characters in your UTF-8 or UTF-16 encoded DocBook XML source
|
|
and add any of the supported Unicode block names to the value of
|
|
<parameter>man.charmap.subset.profile</parameter>.</para>
