org2info, docu workflow

org2info, docu workflow

[Andreas Röhler]

Hi,

having to write a docu which should be transferred into info and other 
formats, what the recommended workflow would be in this case?

Exists an exporter from org into info?

Thanks,

Andreas

Aloha Andreas,

FWIW, I looked into this a while back and couldn't find an easy path
from org to info.  Caveat emptor, absence of evidence isn't evidence of
absence.  Others on the list probably have a better handle on this.

The most promising path seemed to be export to docbook, but I couldn't get
the docbook to info step working with what seemed at the time reasonable
effort so gave it up.  If you have other target formats, as well, then
docbook might be a possibility.

All the best,
Tom

Hi,

thanks, that's the direction it went here. Even thinking on the long run 
writing in docbook from the scratch might be faster than from org or 
reST, as from inside an ML must not care for formatting, while tagging 
might be automated.

Seeing a whole bunch of tools docbook2... (some tex) still hopefully.
