[GRASS-user] grass 6.3 module list in PDF

[Hamish]

Hi,

Richard Gagne gave me the idea to rebuild something I found useful from
GRASS 5, an easy to read synopsis of modules. This is basically a PDF
version of full_index.html.

It's in CVS now, and this link will become active sometime in the next
24 hours:
  http://grass.itc.it/gdp/grassmanuals/grass63_module_list.pdf

With the speed of GRASS's development, I imagine this will be out of
date by then, and it will much be better to write a
tools/build_latex_index.sh script or add the functionality into the
tools/build_html_index.sh script.

unanswered style question: do module descriptions get a trailing "."?


the GRASS 5 manuals used to build themselves into PDF form,
  http://grass.itc.it/gdp/grassmanuals/

maybe we could set up a script to do this for GRASS 6? (chances are good
that Markus already has & I've missed it :) It could be a nice PDF
auto-generated latex book, chapters by type, clickable index, etc.


enjoy,
Hamish
