#!/usr/bin/env retro This tool is intended to be used to create an epub version of the standard documentation. An epub is just a .zip file containing a bunch of XHTML files and a few files containing metadata. Our structure will look like: Book Root Directory |-- META-INF directory | `-- container.xml |-- mimetype |-- content.opf |-- toc.ncx |-- stylesheet.css |-- cover.xhtml |-- toc.xhtml |-- chapterAA.xhtml |-- ... `-- chapterZZ.xhtml Begin by defining some helper functions for writing to a file. ~~~ 'tools/book-chapters.retro include 'FID var :file:s:put [ @FID file:write ] s:for-each ; :file:nl ASCII:CR @FID file:write ; :unix:mkdir 'mkdir_-p_%s s:format unix:system ; ~~~ Create the directories needed. ~~~ 'STEP:_Create_directories s:put nl 'epub unix:mkdir 'epub/META-INF unix:mkdir ~~~ Then create the `mimetype` file.
