From fab377c503df250439b84aba95db023786d33ee1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Aaron Weber Date: Mon, 4 Nov 2002 22:41:05 +0000 Subject: All sgml files replaced with xml files. XML files validated. Two new XML 2002-11-04 Aaron Weber * C/*.sgml: All sgml files replaced with xml files. XML files validated. Two new XML files added: apx-fdl.xml and legal.xml * C/evolution-C.omf: Altered to fit the GDP template. This may now work with the GNOME 2.0 DTD, although I could be wrong. * sgmldocs.make: removed and replaced with xmldocs.make. This will break all translations until they are also ported to XML. I will probably begin doing that tomorrow, since it's just markup and not language stuff. * C/Makefile.am: added two files to the list. Does this Makefile get included in another, somewhere, or is it just detected? svn path=/trunk/; revision=18538 --- help/C/config-prefs.sgml | 908 ----------------------------------------------- 1 file changed, 908 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 help/C/config-prefs.sgml (limited to 'help/C/config-prefs.sgml') diff --git a/help/C/config-prefs.sgml b/help/C/config-prefs.sgml deleted file mode 100644 index 67f1029bd3..0000000000 --- a/help/C/config-prefs.sgml +++ /dev/null @@ -1,908 +0,0 @@ - - - - Advanced Configuration - - Perhaps your mail server has changed names.
