Jamis,

As you graciously did with the Copland manual and siblings,
can you give a cooks tour of the SQLite3 manual. It
has a similar look and feel, but obviously a very different
engine.

Thanks,

This time, it was all done in Hieraki (http://www.hieraki.org),
a Rails-based collaborative book-writing tool by Tobias Luetke.
I tweaked the heck out of the interface, but other than that, it's
just Hieraki, running as a CGI.

With Hieraki, you just obtain an author account, and then you can
create new books. Each book has multiple chapters, and each chapter
has multiple "pages" (or sections)--you edit these all right in the
browser, in textile.

Edit in the browser? Sounds painful. Is there an upload option?

It looks like you've got your figure markup in there also?

No upload. But if you're using a mozilla browser, there's the mozex
plugin that lets you edit text areas in vim! (I dunno--maybe that
sounds even more painful to some people, but it's like paradise for
me.)

Yup. It's all integrated with Hieraki. Just do the following for your
code blocks:

{{{lang=ruby,number=true,caption=A clever quine
puts <<2*2,2
puts <<2*2,2
2
}}}

Hieraki will then use the Syntax engine to convert that code to HTML
using the appropriate highlighting.
