# Building this Book

You need a modern version of Perl installed. I recommend Perl 5.10.1, but
anything newer than 5.8.6 should work.

You should also have Pod::PseudoPod 0.16 or newer installed with its
dependencies.

From the top level directory of a checkout, build the individual chapters with:

$ perl build/tools/build_chapters.pl

The chapter sources are in the sections/ directory. Each chapter has a
corresponding chapter_nn.pod file. Each file contains multiple POD links which
refer to other files in the sections/ directory. Each of those files contains
a PseudoPOD Z<> anchor.

The build_chapters.pl program weaves these sections into chapters and writes
them to POD files in build/chapters.

(This process makes it easy to rearrange sections within and between chapters
without generating huge diffs.)

To build HTML from these woven chapters:

$ perl build/tools/build_html.pl

This will produce nicely-formatted HTML in the build/html/ directory. If
anything looks wrong, it's a mistake on my part (or a CSS problem) and patches
are very welcome.

To build an ePub eBook from the woven chapters:

$ perl build/tools/build_epub.pl

This will produce an ePub eBook in the build/epub/ directory.

To build PDFs from the chapters:

$ perl build/tools/build_pdf.pl

This will build PDFs in the build/pdf directory. You must have App::pod2pdf
installed from the CPAN.
