Xmlt 1.10 - generating html documents with a common layout Xmlt (pronounced ex-melt) merges a layout description with the document contents and generates a html document. Xmlt (Xmlt Merges Layout and Text) uses the DocumentTemplate module from Zope [1] to merge a layout (described in a dtml-file) and the text (found in xmlt-files) into a html document. Its main purpose is to separate the layout description from the contents description of html documents and to reuse the layout description in a large number of documents. Xmlt is originally written to maintain my personal web pages, but it might be useful for other web page maintainers and html document authors too. Xmlt is available for free with code, documents and examples. Send any comments to me (my email address is found in the signature below). I guess it is a little bit strange to use Zope technology to generate static web pages, but I found dtml very useful in the context of a lot of documents with similar layout. I use good old make to generate and install my web pages after I have done any layout or contents changes (I will consider to trash make when the Software Carpentry Open Source Design Competition [2] has come up with a new tool-set that can replace good old make :-). Xmlt, a user guide and some examples are available from the Python starship: ftp://starship.python.net/pub/crew/anders/xmlt/ ftp://starship.python.net/pub/crew/anders/xmlt/doc/xmlt.html Anders, [1] http://www.zope.org/ [2] http://www.software-carpentry.com/ -- Anders Andersen - <mailto:aa@computer.org> - <http://w3.to/andersen/>
