Getting to SGML

[Al Friend]

FM9 on Windows 7

I write manuals for the US Navy, using FM – and I’m fine as long as I stay
in FM. I structure them using the Navy DTD and all, and they should go to
sgml without too much problem, but I just don’t have a good handle on the
process. Part of the problem is that I only have to do this once every few
years, so it doesn’t stick with me.

Does anyone know of a book or other source that can really walk me through
the process of getting my Navy manuals to acceptable sgml? It would need to
include flowcharts or some other mechanism to educate me on not only how
to, for instance, write a read-write rule, but when one is needed. Some
information on element types would be helpful…. Etc.

I really need my hand held here. TIA,
