                       ERBook 7.1.0

       Extensible document processor based on eRuby

           http://snk.tuxfamily.org/lib/erbook/

ERBook is an extensible document processor that emits [1]any
document you can imagine from [2]eRuby templates which allow
scripting and dynamic content generation.

A working [3]XHTML (web page) format is provided, while
[4]LaTeX (PDF), [5]UNIX manual page, and [6]plain text
formats are planned… [7]patches are welcome!

Version 7.1.0 (2009-08-30)

This release improves the appearance and usability of
[8]XHTML (web page) documents through [9]jQuery UI, and fixes
some bugs.

 * [10]New features

 * [11]Bug fixes

 * [12]Housekeeping

New features

 * [13]jQuery UI tabs now organize the content of [14]XHTML
   (web page) documents in a breadth-first manner for easier
   skimming and browsing. Note that the print stylesheet
   still continues to organize content in the traditional
   depth-first manner.

 * Add checkbox for toggling printer friendly stylesheet.
   This makes it more obvious to readers that a
   specially-designed print stylesheet exists for their
   convenience.

 * Show both $title and $subtitle in XHTML document's title.

Bug fixes

 * Reference nodes were included in next/prev navigation
   chain.

 * "Logistics" section was under project description and was
   therefore put into the release announcement. Ack!

Housekeeping

 * Convert CSS into SASS.

 * Use simpler Copyright reminder at the top of every file:
   Copyright protects this work. See LICENSE file for
   details.

 * Remove localScroll and scrollTo jQuery plugins; we do our
   own logic (based on their source code) for smoothly
   scrolling to elements.

 * Rename XHTML resource directories into subdirs.
