[DOC-SIG] Library reference manual debate

[Richard Folwell]

I would like to make a small addition to the Python library documentation [1]. 
 It will not be real soon, say at the start of 1998.  What format should I 
produce it in?

I am familiar with both SGML and LaTex, but do not currently have either 
installed.  I have access to some tools (including FrameMaker + SGML) for SGML, 
but would have to get hold of TeX.  The working platform is NT.

Access to a Unix box for processing material would be possible, but would be 
both a real pain (I would have to set up a machine specially) and would make it 
almost impossible for me to interest any of my colleagues in the toolset.

I am interested in having a structured text system for my own use (at work we 
use Word, for all the usual wrong reasons).  It would be nice to use a system 
that was in regular use by other people for similar material.

[1] Some extra information for people writing sockets code under NT - the 
existing material more or less assumes that you are using Unix.
