This Is A Web Page Generated From The Sample HSRC File

Page last updated: 5 December 1998

This page is a sample of how to set up a .hsrc file for producing a .html file via the gen_html.sh script described in the articles. We'll just be playing around with some of the available features here.

Wrappers

These boxed headings are examples of wrapper routines. They can be used to combine features, and provide for easy replication of style elements.

This wrapper looks like this:

head_wrap() {
	begin_table -b 1 -cp 7
	table_data "`begin_font -s +1``bold \"$*\"``end_font`"
	end_table
	do_break
}

And is called with something like:

head_wrap "A Nested List"

A Nested List

This is an unordered list using circle bullets
Next is a nested definition list
Here's the term part
And here's the definition part
Here's another term part
And another definition part
And this is another item in the outer list

A Table with 2 Levels of Nesting

This is the caption of the outer table.

here's some data

This an embedded table

embedded data 1

embedded data 2

This an embedded-embedded table
embedded data 1	embedded data 2
embedded data 3

embedded data 4

embedded data 5

here's some data

here's some more data

here's a
data cell
using the
-br option

here's some more data

this row is going to end prematurely

here's some more data

Double Quotes

It can be nice to have ``text in double quotes,'' if you know what I mean.

An Anchor

Sometimes we want to have links to other places.

You can create your own wrappers for the routines

This can be useful with long lists, where you want the options and formats to be consistent. You can make the changes in one place.

Orange

A round friut
Semi-edible rind

Pear

A pear-shaped friut
Edible rind

If you were going to need this in multiple source files, the way to go would be to put the wrapper routines and any environment variables into a ``style'' file, then use a command like:

./gen_html -s stylefile.sh webpage.hsrc
