---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Okay so picture this: meinproc4 takes DocBook files and turns them into HTML. That's it, that's the whole vibe. It converts DocBook files to HTML, no cap ✨

---

💅 GENERIC OPTIONS 💅

The lil universal ones, every KDE app's got 'em:

• --author — shows the author info, like a credits roll but make it text 🎀
• --help — shows help about options. literally the "help me bestie" flag 🫶
• --help-all — shows all the options. every single one. the full lore drop 👑
• --help-kde — shows KDE specific options
• --help-qt — shows Qt specific options
• --license — shows license information 📜
• -v--version — shows version information

---

🔥 APPLICATION OPTIONS 🔥

The main character options, the ones you're actually here for:

• --cache file — creates a cache file for the document 💾
• --check — checks the document for validity

Okay so real talk: the output can be a bit daunting, since one small mistake can cause a cascade of errors 😭 The trick is to look at the first error, fix that error, save the file, and run meinproc4 again. One at a time, babe, you got this 💪

• --htdig — creates a ht://dig compatible index
• -o, --output file — outputs the whole document to file ✨
• --stdout — outputs the whole document to stdout
• --stylesheet xsl — the stylesheet to use 🎨
• --srcdir dir — sets the root directory to look for kdelibs
• --param key=value — sets parameters to pass to the stylesheet

---

🌈 USAGE 🌈

The most common way to run meinproc4 is simply as

meinproc4 docbook-file

where docbook-file is usually index.docbook. This command creates HTML pages from the DocBook file. Heads up tho: these pages are only viewable in KDE-based browsers (like Konqueror) 🙈

If you need to view the HTML output in another browser (for example, if you're placing it on line), use

meinproc4 --stylesheet stylesheet-name docbook-file

where stylesheet-name is the full path to one of the XSL stylesheets in $KDEDIR/share/apps/ksgmltools/customization. To produce output suitable for the web, you can use kde-web.xsl or kde-chunk-online.xsl. See the README file in that directory for more details 📖
