* markup is easily readable/parsable by the human eye, (basic -markup is simpler and more sparse than the most basic HTML), [this  may - also  be  converted  to  XML  representations  of  the  same  input/source  document]. - -

* markup defines document structure (this may be done once in a header -pattern-match description, or for heading levels individually); basic text -attributes (bold, italics, underscore, strike-through etc.) as required; -and semantic information related to the document (header information, extended -beyond the Dublin core and easily further extended as required); the headers -may also contain processing instructions. SiSU markup is primarily an abstraction -of document structure and document metadata to permit taking advantage -of the basic strengths of existing alternative practical standard ways -of representing documents [be  that  paper  publication,  sql  search  etc.] (html, -epub, xml, odf, latex, pdf, sql) -

* for output produces reasonably elegant -output of established industry and institutionally accepted open standard -formats.[3] takes advantage of the different strengths of various standard -formats for representing documents, amongst the output formats currently -supported are: -

* html - both as a single scrollable text and a segmented -document

    WHAT +IS SISU? +

    1. INTRODUCTION - WHAT IS SISU? +

    SiSU is a framework for document +structuring, publishing (in multiple open standard formats) and search, +comprising of: (a) a lightweight document structure and presentation markup +syntax; and (b) an accompanying engine for generating standard document +format outputs from documents prepared in sisu markup syntax, which is +able to produce multiple standard outputs (including the population of +sql databases) that (can) share a common numbering system for the citation +of text within a document. +

    SiSU is developed under an open source, software +libre license (GPL3). Its use case for development is work with medium to +large document sets and cope with evolving document formats/ representation +technologies. Documents are prepared once, and generated as need be to update +the technical presentation or add additional output formats. Various output +formats (including search related output) share a common mechanism for +cross-output-format citation. +

    SiSU both defines a markup syntax and provides +an engine that produces open standards format outputs from documents prepared +with SiSU markup. From a single lightly prepared document sisu custom builds +several standard output formats which share a common (text object) numbering +system for citation of content within a document (that also has implications +for search). The sisu engine works with an abstraction of the document’s +structure and content from which it is possible to generate different forms +of representation of the document. Significantly SiSU markup is more sparse +than html and outputs which include html, EPUB, LaTeX, landscape and portrait +pdfs, Open Document Format (ODF), all of which can be added to and updated. +SiSU is also able to populate SQL type databases at an object level, which +means that searches can be made with that degree of granularity. +

    Source +document preparation and output generation is a two step process: (i) document +source is prepared, that is, marked up in sisu markup syntax and (ii) the +desired output subsequently generated by running the sisu engine against +document source. Output representations if updated (in the sisu engine) +can be generated by re-running the engine against the prepared source. Using +SiSU markup applied to a document, SiSU custom builds (to take advantage +of the strengths of different ways of representing documents) various standard +open output formats including plain text, HTML, XHTML, XML, EPUB, OpenDocument, +LaTeX or PDF files, and populate an SQL database with objects[^1] (equating +generally to paragraph-sized chunks) so searches may be performed and matches +returned with that degree of granularity ( e.g. your search criteria is met +by these documents and at these locations within each document). Document +output formats share a common object numbering system for locating content. +This is particularly suitable for "published" works (finalized texts as +opposed to works that are frequently changed or updated) for which it provides +a fixed means of reference of content. +

    In preparing a SiSU document you +optionally provide semantic information related to the document in a document +header, and in marking up the substantive text provide information on the +structure of the document, primarily indicating heading levels and footnotes. +You also provide information on basic text attributes where used. The rest +is automatic, sisu from this information custom builds[^2] the different +forms of output requested. +

    SiSU works with an abstraction of the document +based on its structure which is comprised of its headings[^3] and objects[^4], +which enables SiSU to represent the document in many different ways, and +to take advantage of the strengths of different ways of presenting documents. +The objects are numbered, and these numbers can be used to provide a common +basis for citing material within a document across the different output +format types. This is significant as page numbers are not well suited to +the digital age, in web publishing, changing a browser’s default font or +using a different browser can mean that text will appear on a different +page; and publishing in different formats, html, landscape and portrait +pdf etc. again page numbers are not useful to cite text. Dealing with documents +at an object level together with object numbering also has implications +for search that SiSU is able to take advantage of. +

    One of the challenges +of maintaining documents is to keep them in a format that allows use of +them independently of proprietary platforms. Consider issues related to +dealing with legacy proprietary formats today and what guarantee you have +that old proprietary formats will remain (or can be read without proprietary +software/equipment) in 15 years time, or the way the way in which html +has evolved over its relatively short span of existence. SiSU provides the +flexibility of producing documents in multiple non-proprietary open formats +including html, pdf[^5] ODF,[^6] and EPUB.[^7] Whilst SiSU relies on software, +the markup is uncomplicated and minimalistic which guarantees that future +engines can be written to run against it. It is also easily converted to +other formats, which means documents prepared in SiSU can be migrated to +other document formats. Further security is provided by the fact that the +software itself, SiSU is available under GPL3 a licence that guarantees +that the source code will always be open, and free as in libre, which means +that that code base can be used, updated and further developed as required +under the terms of its license. Another challenge is to keep up with a moving +target. SiSU permits new forms of output to be added as they become important, +(Open Document Format text was added in 2006 when it became an ISO standard +for office applications and the archival of documents), EPUB was introduced +in 2009; and allows the technical representations existing output to be +updated (html has evolved and the related module has been updated repeatedly +over the years, presumably when the World Wide Web Consortium (w3c) finalises +html 5 which is currently under development, the html module will again +be updated allowing all existing documents to be regenerated as html 5). + +

    The document formats are written to the file-system and available for +indexing by independent indexing tools, whether off the web like Google +and Yahoo or on the site like Lucene and Hyperestraier. +

    SiSU also provides +other features such as concordance files and document content certificates, +and the working against an abstraction of document structure has further +possibilities for the research and development of other document representations, +the availability of objects is useful for example for topic maps and thesauri, +together with the flexibility of SiSU offers great possibilities. +

    SiSU +is primarily for published works, which can take advantage of the citation +system to reliably reference its documents. SiSU works well in a complementary +manner with such collaborative technologies as Wikis, which can take advantage +of and be used to discuss the substance of content prepared in SiSU +

    2. COMMANDS SUMMARY +

    2.1 DESCRIPTION +

    SiSU SiSU +is a document publishing system, that from a simple single marked-up document, +produces multiple of output formats including: plaintext, html, xhtml, +XML, epub, odt (odf text), LaTeX, pdf, info, and SQL (PostgreSQL and SQLite), +which share numbered text objects ("object citation numbering") and the +same document structure information. For more see: <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu +> + +

If the optional parameter --webserv=webrick is passed, the cgi examples +created will be set up to use the default port set for use by the webrick +server, (otherwise the port is left blank and the system setting used, +usually 80). The samples are dumped in the present work directory which +must be writable, (with screen instructions given that they be copied to +the cgi-bin directory). -Fv (in addition to the above) provides some information +on setting up hyperestraier for sisu. Alias -F +

    --sisupod [filename/wildcard]
    +
    produces +a zipped file of the prepared document specified along with associated +images, by default named sisupod.zip they may alternatively be named with +the filename extension .ssp This provides a quick way of gathering the relevant +parts of a sisu document which can then for example be emailed. A sisupod +includes sisu markup source file, (along with associated documents if a +master file, or available in multilingual versions), together with related +images and skin. SiSU commands can be run directly against a sisupod contained +in a local directory, or provided as a url on a remote site. As there is +a security issue with skins provided by other users, they are not applied +unless the flag --trust or --trusted is added to the command instruction, it +is recommended that file that are not your own are treated as untrusted. +The directory structure of the unzipped file is understood by sisu, and +sisu commands can be run within it. Note: if you wish to send multiple files, +it quickly becomes more space efficient to zip the sisu markup directory, +rather than the individual files for sending).

    +

    + +
    --pg -v --createall
    +
    initial +step, creates required relations (tables, indexes) in existing postgresql +database (a database should be created manually and given the same name +as working directory, as requested) (rb.dbi) [  -dv  --createall sqlite  equivalent] +it may be necessary to run sisu -Dv --createdb initially NOTE: at the present +time for postgresql it may be necessary to manually create the database. +The command would be ’createdb [database  name]’ where database name would +be SiSU_[present  working  directory  name (without  path)]. Please use only +alphanumerics and underscores. +

    + +
    --pg -v --import
    +
    [filename/wildcard] imports +data specified to postgresql db (rb.dbi) [  -dv  --import  sqlite  equivalent] + +

    +5. SHORTCUTS, +SHORTHAND FOR MULTIPLE FLAGS +

    +

    + +
    --update [filename/wildcard]
    +
    Checks existing +file output and runs the flags required to update this output. This means +that if only html and pdf output was requested on previous runs, only the +-hp files will be applied, and only these will be generated this time, together +with the summary. This can be very convenient, if you offer different outputs +of different files, and just want to do the same again. +

    + +

    consider -u + +

    for appended url info or -v for verbose output +

    +
    +5.1 COMMAND LINE WITH FLAGS +- BATCH PROCESSING +

    In the data directory run sisu -mh filename or wildcard +eg. "sisu -h cisg.sst" or "sisu -h *.{sst,ssm}" to produce html version of all +documents. +

    Running sisu (alone without any flags, filenames or wildcards) +brings up the interactive help, as does any sisu command that is not recognised. +Enter to escape. +

    6. HELP +

    6.1 SISU MANUAL +

    The most up to date information +on sisu should be contained in the sisu_manual, available at: +

    <http://sisudoc.org/sisu/sisu_manual/ +>
    + +

    The manual can be generated from source, found respectively, either +within the SiSU tarball or installed locally at: +

    ./data/doc/sisu/v2/sisu_markup_samples/sisu_manual/
    + +

    /usr/share/doc/sisu/v2/sisu_markup_samples/sisu_manual/
    + +

    move to the respective directory and type e.g.: +

    sisu sisu_manual.ssm
    + +

    6.2 SISU MAN PAGES +

    If SiSU is installed on your system usual man commands +should be available, try: +

    man sisu
    + +

    man sisu_markup
    + +

    man sisu_commands
    + +

    Most SiSU man pages are generated directly from sisu documents that +are used to prepare the sisu manual, the sources files for which are located +within the SiSU tarball at: +

    ./data/doc/sisu/v2/sisu_markup_samples/sisu_manual/
    + +

    Once installed, directory equivalent to: +

    /usr/share/doc/sisu/sisu_manual/
    + +

    Available man pages are converted back to html using man2html: +

    /usr/share/doc/sisu/v2/html/
    + +

    ./data/doc/sisu/v2/html/
    + +

    An online version of the sisu man page is available here: +

    * various +sisu man pages <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/man/ +> [^8] +

    * sisu.1 <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/man/sisu.1.html +> +[^9] +

    6.3 SISU BUILT-IN INTERACTIVE HELP +

    This is particularly useful for +getting the current sisu setup/environment information: +

    sisu --help
    + +

    sisu --help [subject]
    + +

    sisu --help commands
    + +

    sisu --help markup
    + +

    sisu --help env [for  feedback  on  the  way  your  system  is
    + setup  with  regard  to  sisu]
    + +

    sisu -V [environment  information,  same  as  above  command]
    + +

    sisu (on its own provides version and some help information)
    + +

    Apart from real-time information on your current configuration the SiSU +manual and man pages are likely to contain more up-to-date information than +the sisu interactive help (for example on commands and markup). +

    NOTE: +Running the command sisu (alone without any flags, filenames or wildcards) +brings up the interactive help, as does any sisu command that is not recognised. +Enter to escape. +

    6.4 HELP SOURCES +

    For lists of alternative help sources, +see: +

    man page +

    man sisu_help_sources
    + +

    man2html +

    /usr/share/doc/sisu/v2/html/sisu.1.html

    + +

    7. INTRODUCTION TO SISU MARKUP[^10] +

    7.1 SUMMARY +

    SiSU source documents +are plaintext (UTF-8)[^11] files +

    All paragraphs are separated by an empty +line. +

    Markup is comprised of: +

    * at the top of a document, the document +header made up of semantic meta-data about the document and if desired additional +processing instructions (such an instruction to automatically number headings +from a particular level down) +

    * followed by the prepared substantive +text of which the most important single characteristic is the markup of +different heading levels, which define the primary outline of the document +structure. Markup of substantive text includes: +

    * heading levels defines +document structure
    + +

    * text basic attributes, italics, bold etc.
    + +

    * grouped text (objects), which are to be treated differently, such +as code
    + blocks or poems.
    + +

    * footnotes/endnotes
    + +

    * linked text and images
    + +

    * paragraph actions, such as indent, bulleted, numbered-lists, etc.
    + +

    Some interactive help on markup is available, by typing sisu and selecting + +

    markup or sisu --help markup +

    To check the markup in a file: +

    sisu --identify +[filename].sst
    + +

    For brief descriptive summary of markup history +

    sisu --query-history
    + +

    or if for a particular version: +

    sisu --query-0.38
    + +

    7.2 MARKUP EXAMPLES +

    7.2.1 ONLINE +

    Online markup examples are available +together with the respective outputs produced from <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/SiSU/examples.html +> +or from <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/sisu_examples/ +> +

    There is of course this +document, which provides a cursory overview of sisu markup and the respective +output produced: <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/sisu_markup/ +> +

    Some example marked +up files are available as html with syntax highlighting for viewing: <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/sample/syntax +> + +

    an alternative presentation of markup syntax: <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/sample/on_markup.txt +> + +

    7.2.2 INSTALLED +

    With SiSU installed sample skins may be found in: /usr/share/doc/sisu/sisu_markup_samples/dfsg +(or equivalent directory) and if sisu-markup-samples is installed also under: + +

    /usr/share/doc/sisu/sisu_markup_samples/non-free +

    8. MARKUP OF HEADERS +

    + Headers contain either: semantic meta-data about a document, which can +be used by any output module of the program, or; processing instructions. + +

    Note: the first line of a document may include information on the markup +version used in the form of a comment. Comments are a percentage mark at +the start of a paragraph (and as the first character in a line of text) +followed by a space and the comment: +

    +


    +

      % this would be a comment
    +
    +

    8.2 AVAILABLE HEADERS +

    Header tags appear at the beginning of a document +and provide meta information on the document (such as the Dublin Core), +or information as to how the document as a whole is to be processed. All +header instructions take either the form @headername: or 0~headername. All + +

    Dublin Core meta tags are available +

    @indentifier: information or instructions + +

    where the "identifier" is a tag recognised by the program, and the "information" +or "instructions" belong to the tag/indentifier specified +

    Note: a header +where used should only be used once; all headers apart from @title: are +optional; the @structure: header is used to describe document structure, +and can be useful to know. +

    This is a sample header +

    9. MARKUP OF SUBSTANTIVE TEXT +

    9.1 HEADING LEVELS +

    Heading levels are +:A~ ,:B~ ,:C~ ,1~ ,2~ ,3~ ... :A - :C being part / section headings, followed +by other heading levels, and 1 -6 being headings followed by substantive +text or sub-headings. :A~ usually the title :A~? conditional level 1 heading +(used where a stand-alone document may be imported into another) +

    :A~ [heading + text] Top level heading [this  usually  has  similar  content  to  the  ] NOTE: +the heading levels described here are in 0.38 notation, see heading +

    :B~ +[heading  text] Second level heading [this  is  a  heading  level  divider] +

    + :C~ [heading  text] Third level heading [this  is  a  heading  level  divider] + +

    1~ [heading  text] Top level heading preceding substantive text of document +or sub-heading 2, the heading level that would normally be marked 1. or 2. +or 3. etc. in a document, and the level on which sisu by default would break +html output into named segments, names are provided automatically if none +are given (a number), otherwise takes the form 1~my_filename_for_this_segment + +

    2~ [heading  text] Second level heading preceding substantive text of +document or sub-heading 3, the heading level that would normally be marked +1.1 or 1.2 or 1.3 or 2.1 etc. in a document. +

    3~ [heading  text] Third level +heading preceding substantive text of document, that would normally be +marked 1.1.1 or 1.1.2 or 1.2.1 or 2.1.1 etc. in a document +

    +


    +

      1~filename level 1 heading,
    +  % the primary division such as Chapter that is followed by substantive
    +text,
    +  % and may be further subdivided (this is the level on which by default
    +html
    +  % segments are made)
    +
    +

    9.2 FONT ATTRIBUTES +

    markup example: +

    +


    +

      normal text,  *{emphasis}*, !{bold text}!, /{italics}/, _{underscore}_,
    +"{citation}",
    +  ^{superscript}^, ,{subscript},, +{inserted text}+, -{strikethrough}- #{monospace}#
    +  normal text
    +  !{emphasis}!
    +  *{bold text}*
    +  _{underscore}_
    +  /{italics}/
    +  "{citation}"
    +  ^{superscript}^
    +  ,{subscript},
    +  +{inserted text}+
    +  -{strikethrough}-
    +  #{monospace}#
    +
    +

    resulting output: +

    normal text emphasis bold text underscore italics +"citation" ^superscript^ [subscript] ++inserted text++ --strikethrough-- monospace + +

    normal text +

    emphasis [note:  can  be  configured  to  be  represented  by + bold,  italics  or  underscore] +

    bold text +

    italics +

    underscore +

    "citation" + +

    ^superscript^ +

    [subscript] +

    ++inserted text++ +

    --strikethrough-- +

    monospace + +

    9.3 INDENTATION AND BULLETS +

    markup example: +

    +


    +

      ordinary paragraph
    +  _1 indent paragraph one step
    +  _2 indent paragraph two steps
    +  _9 indent paragraph nine steps
    +
    +

    +

    resulting output: +

    ordinary paragraph +

    indent paragraph one step
    + +

    indent paragraph two steps
    + +

    indent paragraph nine steps
    + +

    markup example: +

    +


    +

      _* bullet text
    +  _1* bullet text, first indent
    +  _2* bullet text, two step indent
    +
    +

    resulting output: +

    * bullet text +

    * bullet text, first indent
    + +

    * bullet text, two step indent
    + +

    Numbered List (not to be confused with headings/titles, (document structure)) + +

    markup example: +

    +


    +

      # numbered list                numbered list 1., 2., 3, etc.
    +  _# numbered list numbered list indented a., b., c., d., etc.
    +
    +

    9.4 FOOTNOTES / ENDNOTES +

    Footnotes and endnotes not distinguished in +markup. They are automatically numbered. Depending on the output file format +(html, EPUB, odf, pdf etc.), the document output selected will have either +footnotes or endnotes. +

    markup example: +

    +


    +

      ~{ a footnote or endnote }~
    +
    +

    resulting output: +

    [^12] +

    markup example: +

    +


    +

      normal text~{ self contained endnote marker & endnote in one }~ continues
    +
    +

    resulting output: +

    normal text[^13] continues +

    markup example: +

    +


    +

      normal text ~{* unnumbered asterisk footnote/endnote, insert multiple
    +asterisks if required }~ continues
    +  normal text ~{** another unnumbered asterisk footnote/endnote }~ continues
    +
    +

    resulting output: +

    normal text [^*] continues +

    normal text [^**] continues + +

    markup example: +

    +


    +

      normal text ~[*  editors  notes,  numbered  asterisk  footnote/endnote  series
    + ]~ continues
    +  normal text ~[+  editors  notes,  numbered  asterisk  footnote/endnote  series
    + ]~ continues
    +
    +

    resulting output: +

    normal text [^*3] continues +

    normal text [^+2] continues + +

    Alternative endnote pair notation for footnotes/endnotes: +

    +


    +

      % note the endnote marker
    +  normal text~^ continues
    +  ^~ endnote text following the paragraph in which the marker occurs
    +
    +

    the standard and pair notation cannot be mixed in the same document +

    + +

    9.5 LINKS +

    9.5.1 NAKED URLS WITHIN TEXT, DEALING WITH URLS +

    urls found within +text are marked up automatically. A url within text is automatically hyperlinked +to itself and by default decorated with angled braces, unless they are +contained within a code block (in which case they are passed as normal +text), or escaped by a preceding underscore (in which case the decoration +is omitted). +

    markup example: +

    +


    +

      normal text http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu continues
    +
    +

    resulting output: +

    normal text <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu +> continues +

    An + +

    escaped url without decoration +

    markup example: +

    +


    +

      normal text _http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu continues
    +  deb http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/archive unstable main non-free
    +
    +

    resulting output: +

    normal text <_http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu +> continues +

    +deb <_http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/archive +> unstable main non-free +

    where a code +block is used there is neither decoration nor hyperlinking, code blocks + +

    are discussed later in this document +

    resulting output: +

    +


    +

      deb http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/archive unstable main non-free
    +  deb-src http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/archive unstable main non-free
    +
    +

    To link text or an image to a url the markup is as follows +

    markup example: + +

    +


    +

      about { SiSU }http://url.org markup
    +
    +

    9.5.2 LINKING TEXT +

    resulting output: +

    about SiSU <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/ +> + +

    markup +

    A shortcut notation is available so the url link may also be provided + +

    automatically as a footnote +

    markup example: +

    +


    +

      about {~^ SiSU }http://url.org markup
    +
    +

    resulting output: +

    abou tSiSU <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/ +> [^14] markup +

    + +

    9.5.3 LINKING IMAGES +

    markup example: +

    +


    +

      { tux.png 64x80 }image
    +  % various url linked images
    +  {tux.png 64x80
    +  {GnuDebianLinuxRubyBetterWay.png 100x101
    +  {~^ ruby_logo.png
    +
    +

    resulting output: +

    [ tux.png ] +

    tux.png 64x80 +

    [  ruby_logo  (png  missing) + ] [^15] +

    GnuDebianLinuxRubyBetterWay.png 100x101 and Ruby +

    linked url footnote + +

    shortcut +

    +


    +

      {~^  [text  to  link] }http://url.org
    +  % maps to: {  [text  to  link] }http://url.org ~{ http://url.org }~
    +  % which produces hyper-linked text within a document/paragraph,
    +  with an endnote providing the url for the text location used in the hyperlink
    +
    +

    +


    +

      text marker *~name
    +
    +

    note at a heading level the same is automatically achieved by providing +names to headings 1, 2 and 3 i.e. 2~[name] and 3~[name] or in the case of +auto-heading numbering, without further intervention. +

    9.6 GROUPED TEXT +

    9.6.1 + +

    TABLES +

    Tables may be prepared in two either of two forms +

    markup example: + +

    +


    +

      table{ c3; 40; 30; 30;
    +  This is a table
    +  this would become column two of row one
    +  column three of row one is here
    +  And here begins another row
    +  column two of row two
    +  column three of row two, and so on
    +  }table
    +
    +

    resulting output: +

     [table  omitted,  see  other  document  formats]
    + +

    a second form may be easier to work with in cases where there is not + +

    much information in each column +

    markup example: [^16] +

    +

    9.6.4 CODE +

    Code tags are used to escape regular sisu markup, and have +been used extensively within this document to provide examples of SiSU +markup. You cannot however use code tags to escape code tags. They are however +used in the same way as group or poem tags. +

    A code-block is treated as +an object and given a single object number. [an more than 100 times in last +month. option  to  number  each  line  of  code  may  be  considered  at more than +100 times in last month. some  later  time] +

    use of code tags instead of +poem compared, resulting output: +

    9.7 BOOK INDEX +

    To make an index append to paragraph the book index term +relates to it, using an equal sign and curly braces. +

    Currently two levels +are provided, a main term and if needed a sub-term. Sub-terms are separated +from the main term by a colon. +

    +


    +

        Paragraph containing main term and sub-term.
    +    ={Main term:sub-term}
    +
    +

    The index syntax starts on a new line, but there should not be an empty +line between paragraph and index markup. +

    The structure of the resulting +index would be: +

    +


    +

        Main term, 1
    +      sub-term, 1
    +
    +

    Several terms may relate to a paragraph, they are separated by a semicolon. +If the term refers to more than one paragraph, indicate the number of paragraphs. + +

    +


    +

        Paragraph containing main term, second term and sub-term.
    +    ={first term; second term: sub-term}
    +
    +

    The structure of the resulting index would be: +

    +


    +

        First term, 1,
    +    Second term, 1,
    +      sub-term, 1
    +
    +

    If multiple sub-terms appear under one paragraph, they are separated under +the main term heading from each other by a pipe symbol. +

    +


    +

        Paragraph containing main term, second term and sub-term.
    +    ={Main term:sub-term+1|second sub-term
    +    A paragraph that continues discussion of the first sub-term
    +
    +

    The plus one in the example provided indicates the first sub-term spans +one additional paragraph. The logical structure of the resulting index would +be: +

    +


    +

        Main term, 1,
    +      sub-term, 1-3,
    +      second sub-term, 1,
    +
    +

    10. COMPOSITE DOCUMENTS MARKUP +

    It is possible to build a document by +creating a master document that requires other documents. The documents +required may be complete documents that could be generated independently, +or they could be markup snippets, prepared so as to be easily available +to be placed within another text. If the calling document is a master document +(built from other documents), it should be named with the suffix .ssm Within +this document you would provide information on the other documents that +should be included within the text. These may be other documents that would +be processed in a regular way, or markup bits prepared only for inclusion +within a master document .sst regular markup file, or .ssi (insert/information) + +

    A secondary file of the composite document is built prior to processing + +

    with the same prefix and the suffix ._sst +

    basic markup for importing a + +

    document into a master document +

    +


    +

      << filename1.sst
    +  << filename2.ssi
    +
    +

    The form described above should be relied on. Within the Vim editor it +results in the text thus linked becoming hyperlinked to the document it +is calling in which is convenient for editing. Alternative markup for importation +of documents under consideration, and occasionally supported have been. + +

    +


    +

      << filename.ssi
    +  <<{filename.ssi}
    +  % using textlink alternatives
    +  << |filename.ssi|@|^|
    +
    +

    MARKUP SYNTAX HISTORY +

    11. NOTES RELATED TO FILES-TYPES AND MARKUP SYNTAX + +

    0.38 is substantially current, depreciated 0.16 supported, though file + +

    names were changed at 0.37 +

    * sisu --query=[sisu  version  [0.38] or ’history] + +

    provides a short history of changes to SiSU markup +

    0.57 (2007w34/4) +SiSU 0.57 is the same as 0.42 with the introduction of some a shortcut to +use the headers @title and @creator in the first heading [expanded  using + the  and  @author:] +

    +


    +

      :A~ @title by @author
    +
    +

    0.52 (2007w14/6) declared document type identifier at start of text/document: + +

    .B SiSU
    + 0.52 +

    or, backward compatible using the comment marker: +

    %
    + SiSU 0.38 +

    variations include ’ SiSU (text|master|insert) [version]’ and ’sisu-[version]’ + +

    0.51 (2007w13/6) skins changed (simplified), markup unchanged +

    0.42 (2006w27/4) +* (asterisk) type endnotes, used e.g. in relation to author +

    SiSU 0.42 is +the same as 0.38 with the introduction of some additional endnote types, + +

    Introduces some variations on endnotes, in particular the use of the + +

    asterisk +

    +


    +

      ~{* for example for describing an author }~ and ~{** for describing a
    +second author }~
    +
    +

    * for example for describing an author +

    ** for describing a second author + +

    and +

    +


    +

      ~[*  my  note  ]~ or ~[+  another  note  ]~
    +
    +

    which numerically increments an asterisk and plus respectively +

    *1 my + +

    note +1 another note +

    0.38 (2006w15/7) introduced new/alternative notation +for headers, e.g. @title: (instead of 0~title), and accompanying document +structure markup, :A,:B,:C,1,2,3 (maps to previous 1,2,3,4,5,6) +

    SiSU +0.38 introduced alternative experimental header and heading/structure markers, + +

    +


    +

      @headername: and headers :A~ :B~ :C~ 1~ 2~ 3~
    +
    +

    as the equivalent of: +

    +


    +

      0~headername and headers 1~ 2~ 3~ 4~ 5~ 6~
    +
    +

    The internal document markup of SiSU 0.16 remains valid and standard Though + +

    note that SiSU 0.37 introduced a new file naming convention +

    SiSU has in +effect two sets of levels to be considered, using 0.38 notation A-C headings/levels, +pre-ordinary paragraphs /pre-substantive text, and 1-3 headings/levels, levels +which are followed by ordinary text. This may be conceptualised as levels +A,B,C, 1,2,3, and using such letter number notation, in effect: A must +exist, optional B and C may follow in sequence (not strict) 1 must exist, +optional 2 and 3 may follow in sequence i.e. there are two independent heading +level sequences A,B,C and 1,2,3 (using the 0.16 standard notation 1,2,3 +and 4,5,6) on the positive side: the 0.38 A,B,C,1,2,3 alternative makes +explicit an aspect of structuring documents in SiSU that is not otherwise +obvious to the newcomer (though it appears more complicated, is more in +your face and likely to be understood fairly quickly); the substantive +text follows levels 1,2,3 and it is ’nice’ to do most work in those levels + +

    0.37 (2006w09/7) introduced new file naming convention, .sst (text), .ssm +(master), .ssi (insert), markup syntax unchanged +

    SiSU 0.37 introduced new +file naming convention, using the file extensions .sst .ssm and .ssi to replace +.s1 .s2 .s3 .r1 .r2 .r3 and .si
    + +

    this is captured by the following file ’rename’ instruction: +

    +


    +

      rename ’s/.s[123]$/.sst/’ *.s{1,2,3}
    +  rename ’s/.r[123]$/.ssm/’ *.r{1,2,3}
    +  rename ’s/.si$/.ssi/’ *.si
    +
    +

    The internal document markup remains unchanged, from SiSU 0.16 +

    0.35 (2005w52/3) +sisupod, zipped content file introduced +

    0.23 (2005w36/2) utf-8 for markup + +

    file +

    0.22 (2005w35/3) image dimensions may be omitted if rmagick is available + +

    to be relied upon +

    0.20.4 (2005w33/4) header 0~links +

    0.16 (2005w25/2) substantial +changes introduced to make markup cleaner, header 0~title type, and headings +[1-6]~ introduced, also percentage sign (%) at start of a text line as comment + +

    marker +

    SiSU 0.16 (0.15 development branch) introduced the use of +

    the +header 0~ and headings/structure 1~ 2~ 3~ 4~ 5~ 6~ +

    in place of the 0.1 +header, heading/structure notation +

    SiSU 0.1 headers and headings structure +represented by header 0{~ and headings/structure 1{ 2{ 3{ 4{~ 5{ 6{ +

    12. +SISU FILETYPES +

    SiSU has plaintext and binary filetypes, and can process +either type of document. +

    12.1 .SST .SSM .SSI MARKED UP PLAIN TEXT +

    SiSU documents +are prepared as plain-text (utf-8) files with SiSU markup. They may make reference +to and contain images (for example), which are stored in the directory +beneath them _sisu/image. SiSU plaintext markup files are of three types +that may be distinguished by the file extension used: regular text .sst; +master documents, composite documents that incorporate other text, which +can be any regular text or text insert; and inserts the contents of which +are like regular text except these are marked .ssi and are not processed.
    + +

    SiSU processing can be done directly against a sisu documents; which +may be located locally or on a remote server for which a url is provided. + +

    SiSU source markup can be shared with the command: +

    sisu -s [filename]
    + +

    12.1.1 SISU TEXT - REGULAR FILES (.SST) +

    The most common form of document +in SiSU , see the section on SiSU markup. +

    <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/sisu_markup +> + +

    <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/sisu_manual +> +

    12.1.2 SISU MASTER FILES (.SSM) +

    Composite +documents which incorporate other SiSU documents which may be either regular +SiSU text .sst which may be generated independently, or inserts prepared +solely for the purpose of being incorporated into one or more master documents. + +

    The mechanism by which master files incorporate other documents is described +as one of the headings under under SiSU markup in the SiSU manual. +

    Note: +Master documents may be prepared in a similar way to regular documents, +and processing will occur normally if a .sst file is renamed .ssm without +requiring any other documents; the .ssm marker flags that the document may +contain other documents. +

    Note: a secondary file of the composite document +is built prior to processing with the same prefix and the suffix ._sst [^17] + +

    <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/sisu_markup +> +

    <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/sisu_manual +> + +

    12.1.3 SISU INSERT FILES (.SSI) +

    Inserts are documents prepared solely for +the purpose of being incorporated into one or more master documents. They +resemble regular SiSU text files except they are ignored by the SiSU processor. +Making a file a .ssi file is a quick and convenient way of flagging that +it is not intended that the file should be processed on its own. +

    12.2 SISUPOD, +ZIPPED BINARY CONTAINER (SISUPOD.ZIP, .SSP) +

    A sisupod is a zipped SiSU +text file or set of SiSU text files and any associated images that they +contain (this will be extended to include sound and multimedia-files) +

    +SiSU plaintext files rely on a recognised directory structure to find contents +such as images associated with documents, but all images for example for +all documents contained in a directory are located in the sub-directory +_sisu/image. Without the ability to create a sisupod it can be inconvenient +to manually identify all other files associated with a document. A sisupod +automatically bundles all associated files with the document that is turned +into a pod. +

    The structure of the sisupod is such that it may for example +contain a single document and its associated images; a master document +and its associated documents and anything else; or the zipped contents +of a whole directory of prepared SiSU documents. +

    The command to create +a sisupod is: +

    sisu -S [filename]
    + +

    Alternatively, make a pod of the contents of a whole directory: +

    +sisu -S
    + +

    SiSU processing can be done directly against a sisupod; which may be +located locally or on a remote server for which a url is provided. +

    13. EXPERIMENTAL ALTERNATIVE INPUT +REPRESENTATIONS +

    13.1 ALTERNATIVE XML +

    SiSU offers alternative XML input +representations of documents as a proof of concept, experimental feature. +They are however not strictly maintained, and incomplete and should be +handled with care. +

    convert from sst to simple xml representations (sax, +dom and node): +

    sisu --to-sax [filename/wildcard] or sisu --to-sxs [filename/wildcard]
    + +

    sisu --to-dom [filename/wildcard] or sisu --to-sxd [filename/wildcard]
    + +

    sisu --to-node [filename/wildcard] or sisu --to-sxn [filename/wildcard]
    + +

    convert to sst from any sisu xml representation (sax, dom and node): + +

    sisu --from-xml2sst [filename/wildcard  [.sxs.xml,.sxd.xml,sxn.xml]]
    + +

    or the same: +

    sisu --from-sxml [filename/wildcard  [.sxs.xml,.sxd.xml,sxn.xml]]
    + +

    13.1.1 XML SAX REPRESENTATION +

    To convert from sst to simple xml (sax) +representation: +

    sisu --to-sax [filename/wildcard] or sisu --to-sxs [filename/wildcard]
    + +

    To convert from any sisu xml representation back to sst +

    sisu --from-xml2sst +[filename/wildcard  [.sxs.xml,.sxd.xml,sxn.xml]]
    + +

    or the same: +

    sisu --from-sxml [filename/wildcard  [.sxs.xml,.sxd.xml,sxn.xml]]
    + +

    13.1.2 XML DOM REPRESENTATION +

    To convert from sst to simple xml (dom) +representation: +

    sisu --to-dom [filename/wildcard] or sisu --to-sxd [filename/wildcard]
    + +

    To convert from any sisu xml representation back to sst +

    sisu --from-xml2sst +[filename/wildcard  [.sxs.xml,.sxd.xml,sxn.xml]]
    + +

    or the same: +

    sisu --from-sxml [filename/wildcard  [.sxs.xml,.sxd.xml,sxn.xml]]
    + +

    13.1.3 XML NODE REPRESENTATION +

    To convert from sst to simple xml (node) +representation: +

    sisu --to-node [filename/wildcard] or sisu --to-sxn [filename/wildcard]
    + +

    To convert from any sisu xml representation back to sst +

    sisu --from-xml2sst +[filename/wildcard  [.sxs.xml,.sxd.xml,sxn.xml]]
    + +

    or the same: +

    sisu --from-sxml [filename/wildcard  [.sxs.xml,.sxd.xml,sxn.xml]]
    + +

    14. CONFIGURATION +

    14.1 DETERMINING THE CURRENT CONFIGURATION +

    Information +on the current configuration of SiSU should be available with the help +command: +

    sisu -v
    + +

    which is an alias for: +

    sisu --help env
    + +

    Either of these should be executed from within a directory that contains +sisu markup source documents. +

    14.2 CONFIGURATION FILES (CONFIG.YML) +

    SiSU +configration parameters are adjusted in the configuration file, which can +be used to override the defaults set. This includes such things as which +directory interim processing should be done in and where the generated +output should be placed. +

    The SiSU configuration file is a yaml file, which +means indentation is significant. +

    SiSU resource configuration is determined +by looking at the following files if they exist: +

    ./_sisu/sisurc.yml
    + +

    ~/.sisu/sisurc.yml
    + +

    /etc/sisu/sisurc.yml
    + +

    The search is in the order listed, and the first one found is used. +

    + In the absence of instructions in any of these it falls back to the internal +program defaults. +

    Configuration determines the output and processing directories +and the database access details. +

    If SiSU is installed a sample sisurc.yml + +

    may be found in /etc/sisu/sisurc.yml +

    15. SKINS +

    Skins modify the default +appearance of document output on a document, directory, or site wide basis. +Skins are looked for in the following locations: +

    ./_sisu/skin
    + +

    ~/.sisu/skin
    + +

    /etc/sisu/skin
    + +

    Within the skin directory are the following the default sub-directories +for document skins: +

    ./skin/doc
    + +

    ./skin/dir
    + +

    ./skin/site
    + +

    A skin is placed in the appropriate directory and the file named skin_[name].rb + +

    The skin itself is a ruby file which modifies the default appearances +set in the program. +

    15.1 DOCUMENT SKIN +

    Documents take on a document skin, +if the header of the document specifies a skin to be used. +

    +


    +

      @skin: skin_united_nations
    +
    +

    15.2 DIRECTORY SKIN +

    A directory may be mapped on to a particular skin, +so all documents within that directory take on a particular appearance. +If a skin exists in the skin/dir with the same name as the document directory, +it will automatically be used for each of the documents in that directory, +(except where a document specifies the use of another skin, in the skin/doc +directory). +

    A personal habit is to place all skins within the doc directory, +and symbolic links as needed from the site, or dir directories as required. + +

    15.3 SITE SKIN +

    A site skin, modifies the program default skin. +

    15.4 SAMPLE + +

    SKINS +

    With SiSU installed sample skins may be found in: +

    /etc/sisu/skin/doc +and
    + /usr/share/doc/sisu/v2/sisu_markup_samples/samples/_sisu/skin/doc
    + +

    (or equivalent directory) and if sisu-markup-samples is installed also +under: +

    /usr/share/doc/sisu-markup-samples/v2/samples/_sisu/skin/doc
    + +

    Samples of list.yml and promo.yml (which are used to create the right +column list) may be found in: +

    /usr/share/doc/sisu/sisu_markup_samples/dfsg/_sisu/skin/yml +(or equivalent
    + directory)
    + +

    16. CSS - CASCADING STYLE SHEETS (FOR HTML, XHTML AND XML) +

    CSS files +to modify the appearance of SiSU html, XHTML or XML may be placed in the +configuration directory: ./_sisu/css ; ~/.sisu/css or; /etc/sisu/css and +these will be copied to the output directories with the command sisu -CC. + +

    The basic CSS file for html output is html.css, placing a file of that +name in directory _sisu/css or equivalent will result in the default file +of that name being overwritten. +

    HTML: html.css +

    XML DOM: dom.css +

    XML +SAX: sax.css +

    XHTML: xhtml.css +

    The default homepage may use homepage.css + +

    or html.css +

    Under consideration is to permit the placement of a CSS file +with a different name in directory _sisu/css directory or equivalent, and +change the default CSS file that is looked for in a skin.[^18] +

    17. ORGANISING +CONTENT +

    17.1 DIRECTORY STRUCTURE AND MAPPING +

    The output directory root +can be set in the sisurc.yml file. Under the root, subdirectories are made +for each directory in which a document set resides. If you have a directory +named poems or conventions, that directory will be created under the output +directory root and the output for all documents contained in the directory +of a particular name will be generated to subdirectories beneath that directory +(poem or conventions). A document will be placed in a subdirectory of the +same name as the document with the filetype identifier stripped (.sst .ssm) + +

    The last part of a directory path, representing the sub-directory in which +a document set resides, is the directory name that will be used for the +output directory. This has implications for the organisation of document +collections as it could make sense to place documents of a particular subject, +or type within a directory identifying them. This grouping as suggested +could be by subject (sales_law, english_literature); or just as conveniently +by some other classification (X University). The mapping means it is also +possible to place in the same output directory documents that are for organisational +purposes kept separately, for example documents on a given subject of two +different institutions may be kept in two different directories of the +same name, under a directory named after each institution, and these would +be output to the same output directory. Skins could be associated with each +institution on a directory basis and resulting documents will take on the +appropriate different appearance. +

    +

    18. HOMEPAGES +

    SiSU is about the ability +to auto-generate documents. Home pages are regarded as custom built items, +and are not created by SiSU SiSU has a default home page, which will not +be appropriate for use with other sites, and the means to provide your +own home page instead in one of two ways as part of a site’s configuration, +these being: +

    1. through placing your home page and other custom built +documents in the subdirectory _sisu/home/ (this probably being the easier +and more convenient option) +

    2. through providing what you want as the +home page in a skin, +

    Document sets are contained in directories, usually +organised by site or subject. Each directory can/should have its own homepage. +See the section on directory structure and organisation of content. +

    18.1 + +

    HOME PAGE AND OTHER CUSTOM BUILT PAGES IN A SUB-DIRECTORY +

    Custom built +pages, including the home page index.html may be placed within the configuration +directory _sisu/home/ in any of the locations that is searched for the +configuration directory, namely ./_sisu ; ~/_sisu ; /etc/sisu From there +they are copied to the root of the output directory with the command: +

    + sisu -CC
    + +

    18.2 HOME PAGE WITHIN A SKIN +

    Skins are described in a separate section, +but basically are a file written in the programming language Ruby that +may be provided to change the defaults that are provided with sisu with +respect to individual documents, a directories contents or for a site. +

    + If you wish to provide a homepage within a skin the skin should be in +the directory _sisu/skin/dir and have the name of the directory for which +it is to become the home page. Documents in the directory commercial_law +would have the homepage modified in skin_commercial law.rb; or the directory + +

    poems in skin_poems.rb +

    +


    +

        class Home
    +      def homepage
    +        # place the html content of your homepage here, this will become
    +index.html
    +        <<HOME <html>
    +  <head></head>
    +  <doc>
    +  <p>this is my new homepage.</p>
    +  </doc>
    +  </html>
    +  HOME
    +      end
    +    end
    +
    +

    19. MARKUP AND OUTPUT EXAMPLES +

    19.1 MARKUP EXAMPLES +

    Current markup examples +and document output samples are provided at <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/SiSU/examples.html +> + +

    Some markup with syntax highlighting may be found under <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/sample/syntax +> +but is not as up to date. +

    For some documents hardly any markup at all +is required at all, other than a header, and an indication that the levels +to be taken into account by the program in generating its output are. +

    20. +SISU SEARCH - INTRODUCTION +

    SiSU output can easily and conveniently be +indexed by a number of standalone indexing tools, such as Lucene, Hyperestraier. + +

    Because the document structure of sites created is clearly defined, and +the text object citation system is available hypothetically at least, for +all forms of output, it is possible to search the sql database, and either +read results from that database, or just as simply map the results to the +html output, which has richer text markup. +

    In addition to this SiSU has +the ability to populate a relational sql type database with documents at +an object level, with objects numbers that are shared across different +output types, which make them searchable with that degree of granularity. +Basically, your match criteria is met by these documents and at these locations +within each document, which can be viewed within the database directly +or in various output formats. +

    21. SQL +

    21.1 POPULATING SQL TYPE DATABASES + +

    SiSU feeds sisu markupd documents into sql type databases PostgreSQL[^19] +and/or SQLite[^20] database together with information related to document +structure. +

    This is one of the more interesting output forms, as all the +structural data of the documents are retained (though can be ignored by +the user of the database should they so choose). All site texts/documents +are (currently) streamed to four tables: +

    * one containing semantic +(and other) headers, including, title, author,
    + subject, (the Dublin Core...);
    + +

    * another the substantive texts by individual "paragraph" (or object) +-
    + along with structural information, each paragraph being identifiable +by its
    + paragraph number (if it has one which almost all of them do), and the
    + substantive text of each paragraph quite naturally being searchable +(both in
    + formatted and clean text versions for searching); and
    + +

    * a third containing endnotes cross-referenced back to the paragraph +from
    + which they are referenced (both in formatted and clean text versions +for
    + searching).
    + +

    * a fourth table with a one to one relation with the headers table +contains
    + full text versions of output, eg. pdf, html, xml, and ascii.
    + +

    There is of course the possibility to add further structures. +

    At this +level SiSU loads a relational database with documents chunked into objects, +their smallest logical structurally constituent parts, as text objects, +with their object citation number and all other structural information +needed to construct the document. Text is stored (at this text object level) +with and without elementary markup tagging, the stripped version being +so as to facilitate ease of searching. +

    Being able to search a relational +database at an object level with the SiSU citation system is an effective +way of locating content generated by SiSU object numbers, and all versions +of the document have the same numbering, complex searches can be tailored +to return just the locations of the search results relevant for all available +output formats, with live links to the precise locations in the database +or in html/xml documents; or, the structural information provided makes +it possible to search the full contents of the database and have headings +in which search content appears, or to search only headings etc. (as the +Dublin Core is incorporated it is easy to make use of that as well). +

    +24. INTRODUCTION +

    24.1 SEARCH - DATABASE FRONTEND SAMPLE, UTILISING +DATABASE AND SISU FEATURES, INCLUDING OBJECT CITATION NUMBERING (BACKEND +CURRENTLY POSTGRESQL) +

    Sample search frontend <http://search.sisudoc.org +> +[^21] A small database and sample query front-end (search from) that makes +use of the citation system, object citation numbering to demonstrates functionality.[^22] + +

    SiSU can provide information on which documents are matched and at what +locations within each document the matches are found. These results are +relevant across all outputs using object citation numbering, which includes +html, XML, EPUB, LaTeX, PDF and indeed the SQL database. You can then refer +to one of the other outputs or in the SQL database expand the text within +the matched objects (paragraphs) in the documents matched. +

    Note you may +set results either for documents matched and object number locations within +each matched document meeting the search criteria; or display the names +of the documents matched along with the objects (paragraphs) that meet +the search criteria.[^23] +

    +

    + +
    sisu -F --webserv-webrick
    +
    builds a cgi web search + +

    frontend for the database created +

    The following is feedback on the setup +on a machine provided by the help command: +

    Note on databases built +

    By default, [unless  otherwise  specified] databases +are built on a directory basis, from collections of documents within that +directory. The name of the directory you choose to work from is used as +the database name, i.e. if you are working in a directory called /home/ralph/ebook +the database SiSU_ebook is used.

    +24.2 SEARCH FORM +

    +

    + +
    sisu -F
    +
    generates a sample search form, which must + +

    be copied to the web-server cgi directory +

    + +
    sisu -F --webserv-webrick
    +
    generates +a sample search form for use with the webrick server, which must be copied + +

    to the web-server cgi directory +

    + +
    sisu -Fv
    +
    as above, and provides some information + +

    on setting up hyperestraier +

    + +
    sisu -W
    +
    starts the webrick server which should + +

    be available wherever sisu is properly installed +

    The generated search + +

    form must be copied manually to the webserver directory as instructed +

    +

    +
    +25. HYPERESTRAIER +

    See the documentation for hyperestraier: +

    <http://hyperestraier.sourceforge.net/ +>
    + +

    /usr/share/doc/hyperestraier/index.html
    + +

    man estcmd
    + +

    NOTE: the examples that follow assume that sisu output is placed in + +

    the directory /home/ralph/sisu_www +

    (A) to generate the index within the +webserver directory to be indexed: +

    estcmd gather -sd [index  name] [directory + path  to  index]
    + +

    the following are examples that will need to be tailored according to +your needs: +

    cd /home/ralph/sisu_www
    + +

    estcmd gather -sd casket /home/ralph/sisu_www
    + +

    you may use the ’find’ command together with ’egrep’ to limit indexing to +particular document collection directories within the web server directory: + +

    find /home/ralph/sisu_www -type f | egrep
    + ’/home/ralph/sisu_www/sisu/.+?.html$’ |estcmd gather -sd casket -
    + +

    Check which directories in the webserver/output directory (~/sisu_www +or elsewhere depending on configuration) you wish to include in the search +index. +

    As sisu duplicates output in multiple file formats, it it is probably +preferable to limit the estraier index to html output, and as it may also +be desirable to exclude files ’plain.txt’, ’toc.html’ and ’concordance.html’, as +these duplicate information held in other html output e.g. +

    find /home/ralph/sisu_www +-type f | egrep
    + ’/sisu_www/(sisu|bookmarks)/.+?.html$’ | egrep -v
    + ’(doc|concordance).html$’ |estcmd gather -sd casket -
    + +

    from your current document preparation/markup directory, you would construct +a rune along the following lines: +

    find /home/ralph/sisu_www -type f +| egrep ’/home/ralph/sisu_www/([specify
    + first  directory  for  inclusion]|[specify  second  directory  for
    + inclusion]|[another  directory  for  inclusion?  ...])/.+?.html$’ |
    + egrep -v ’(doc|concordance).html$’ |estcmd gather -sd
    + /home/ralph/sisu_www/casket -
    + +

    (B) to set up the search form +

    (i) copy estseek.cgi to your cgi directory +and set file permissions to 755: +

    sudo cp -vi /usr/lib/estraier/estseek.cgi +/usr/lib/cgi-bin
    + +

    sudo chmod -v 755 /usr/lib/cgi-bin/estseek.cgi
    + +

    sudo cp -v /usr/share/hyperestraier/estseek.* /usr/lib/cgi-bin
    + +

    [see  estraier  documentation  for  paths]
    + +

    (ii) edit estseek.conf, with attention to the lines starting ’indexname:’ +and ’replace:’: +

    indexname: /home/ralph/sisu_www/casket
    + +

    replace: ^file:///home/ralph/sisu_www{{!}}http://localhost +
    + +

    replace: /index.html?${{!}}/
    + +

    (C) to test using webrick, start webrick: +

    sisu -W
    + +

    and try open the url: <http://localhost:8081/cgi-bin/estseek.cgi +> +

    27. REMOTE SOURCE DOCUMENTS +

    SiSU processing instructions can be run +against remote source documents by providing the url of the documents against +which the processing instructions are to be carried out. The remote SiSU +documents can either be sisu marked up files in plaintext .sst or .ssm or; +zipped sisu files, sisupod.zip or filename.ssp +

    .sst / .ssm - sisu text files + +

    SiSU can be run against source text files on a remote machine, provide +the processing instruction and the url. The source file and any associated +parts (such as images) will be downloaded and generated locally. +

    +


    +

      sisu -3 http://[provide  url  to  valid  .sst  or  .ssm  file]
    +
    +

    Any of the source documents in the sisu examples page can be used in +this way, see <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/SiSU/examples.html +> and use the url +for the desired document. +

    NOTE: to set up a remote machine to serve SiSU +documents in this way, images should be in the directory relative to the + +

    document source ../_sisu/image +

    sisupod - zipped sisu files +

    A sisupod is +the zipped content of a sisu marked up text or texts and any other associated +parts to the document such as images. +

    SiSU can be run against a sisupod +on a (local or) remote machine, provide the processing instruction and +the url, the sisupod will be downloaded and the documents it contains generated +locally. +

    +


    +

      sisu -3 http://[provide  url  to  valid  sisupod.zip  or  .ssp  file]
    +
    +

    Any of the source documents in the sisu examples page can be used in +this way, see <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/SiSU/examples.html +> and use the url +for the desired document. +

    REMOTE DOCUMENT OUTPUT +

    28. REMOTE OUTPUT +

    +Once properly configured SiSU output can be automatically posted once generated +to a designated remote machine using either rsync, or scp. +

    In order to +do this some ssh authentication agent and keychain or similar tool will +need to be configured. Once that is done the placement on a remote host +can be done seamlessly with the -r (for scp) or -R (for rsync) flag, which +may be used in conjunction with other processing flags, e.g. +

    +


    +

      sisu -3R sisu_remote.sst
    +
    +

    28.1 COMMANDS +

    +

    + +
    -R [filename/wildcard]
    +
    copies sisu output files to remote +host using rsync. This requires that sisurc.yml has been provided with information +on hostname and username, and that you have your different if -R is used +with other flags from if used alone. Alone the rsync --delete parameter is +sent, useful for cleaning the remote directory (when -R is used together +with other flags, it is not). Also see -r +

    + +
    -r [filename/wildcard]
    +
    copies sisu +output files to remote host using scp. This requires that sisurc.yml has +been provided with information on hostname and username, and that you have + +

    your +

    +28.2 CONFIGURATION +

    [expand  on  the  setting  up  of  an  ssh-agent  /  keychain] + +

    29. REMOTE SERVERS +

    As SiSU is generally operated using the command line, +and works within a Unix type environment, SiSU the program and all documents +can just as easily be on a remote server, to which you are logged on using +a terminal, and commands and operations would be pretty much the same as +they would be on your local machine. +

    30. QUICKSTART - GETTING STARTED HOWTO + +

    30.1 INSTALLATION +

    Installation is currently most straightforward and +tested on the Debian platform, as there are packages for the installation +of sisu and all requirements for what it does. +

    30.1.1 DEBIAN INSTALLATION + +

    SiSU is available directly from the Debian Sid and testing archives (and +possibly Ubuntu), assuming your /etc/apt/sources.list is set accordingly: + +

    +


    +

        aptitude update
    +    aptitude install sisu-complete
    +
    +

    The following /etc/apt/sources.list setting permits the download of additional +markup samples: +

    +
    +

    The aptitude commands become: +

    +


    +

        aptitude update
    +    aptitude install sisu-complete sisu-markup-samples
    +
    +

    If there are newer versions of SiSU upstream of the Debian archives, + +

    they will be available by adding the following to your /etc/apt/sources.list + +

    +


    +

      #/etc/apt/sources.list
    +    deb http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/archive unstable main non-free
    +    deb-src http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/archive unstable main non-free
    +
    +

    repeat the aptitude commands +

    +


    +

        aptitude update
    +    aptitude install sisu-complete sisu-markup-samples
    +
    +

    Note however that it is not necessary to install sisu-complete if not +all components of sisu are to be used. Installing just the package sisu +will provide basic functionality. +

    30.1.2 RPM INSTALLATION +

    RPMs are provided +though untested, they are prepared by running alien against the source +package, and against the debs. +

    They may be downloaded from: +

    <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/SiSU/download.html#rpm +>
    + +

    as root type: +

    rpm -i [rpm  package  name]
    + +

    30.1.3 INSTALLATION FROM SOURCE +

    To install SiSU from source check information +at: +

    <http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/SiSU/download.html#current +>
    + +

    * download the source package +

    * Unpack the source +

    Two alternative +modes of installation from source are provided, setup.rb (by Minero Aoki) +and a rant(by Stefan Lang) built install file, in either case: the first +steps are the same, download and unpack the source file: +

    For basic use +SiSU is only dependent on the programming language in which it is written +Ruby , and SiSU will be able to generate html, EPUB, various XMLs, including +ODF (and will also produce LaTeX). Dependencies required for further actions, +though it relies on the installation of additional dependencies which the +source tarball does not take care of, for things like using a database +(postgresql or sqlite)[^24] or converting LaTeX to pdf. +

    setup.rb +

    This +is a standard ruby installer, using setup.rb is a three step process. In +the root directory of the unpacked SiSU as root type: +

    +


    +

          ruby setup.rb config
    +      ruby setup.rb setup
    +      #[and  as  root:]
    +      ruby setup.rb install
    +
    +

    further information on setup.rb is available from: +

    <http://i.loveruby.net/en/projects/setup/ +>
    + +

    <http://i.loveruby.net/en/projects/setup/doc/usage.html +>
    + +

    +

    The root directory of the unpacked SiSU as root type: +

    ruby install +base
    + +

    or for a more complete installation: +

    ruby install
    + +

    or +

    ruby install base
    + +

    This makes use of Rant (by Stefan Lang) and the provided Rantfile. It +has been configured to do post installation setup setup configuration and +generation of first test file. Note however, that additional external package +dependencies, such as tetex-extra are not taken care of for you. +

    Further + +

    information on +

    <http://make.rubyforge.org/ +>
    + +

    <http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=615 +>
    + +

    For a list of alternative actions you may type: +

    ruby install help
    + +

    ruby install -T
    + +

    30.2 TESTING SISU, GENERATING OUTPUT +

    To check which version of sisu +is installed: +

    sisu -v +

    Depending on your mode of installation one or +a number of markup sample files may be found either in the directory: +

    + +

    or +

    +

    change directory to the appropriate one: +

    cd /usr/share/doc/sisu/sisu_markup_samples/dfsg + +

    30.2.1 BASIC TEXT, PLAINTEXT, HTML, XML, ODF, EPUB +

    Having moved to the +directory that contains the markup samples (see instructions above if necessary), + +

    choose a file and run sisu against it +

    sisu -NhwoabxXyv free_as_in_freedom.rms_and_free_software.sam_williams.sst + +

    this will generate html including a concordance file, opendocument text +format, plaintext, XHTML and various forms of XML, and OpenDocument text + +

    30.2.2 LATEX / PDF +

    Assuming a LaTeX engine such as tetex or texlive is +installed with the required modules (done automatically on selection of +sisu-pdf in Debian ) +

    Having moved to the directory that contains the markup +samples (see instructions above if necessary), choose a file and run sisu + +

    against it +

    sisu -pv free_as_in_freedom.rms_and_free_software.sam_williams.sst + +

    sisu -3 free_as_in_freedom.rms_and_free_software.sam_williams.sst +

    should +generate most available output formats: html including a concordance file, +opendocument text format, plaintext, XHTML and various forms of XML, and + +

    OpenDocument text and pdf +

    30.2.3 RELATIONAL DATABASE - POSTGRESQL, SQLITE + +

    Relational databases need some setting up - you must have permission to +create the database and write to it when you run sisu. +

    Assuming you have + +

    the database installed and the requisite permissions +

    sisu --sqlite --recreate + +

    sisu --sqlite -v --import free_as_in_freedom.rms_and_free_software.sam_williams.sst + +

    sisu --pgsql --recreate +

    sisu --pgsql -v --import free_as_in_freedom.rms_and_free_software.sam_williams.sst + +

    32. HOW DOES SISU WORK? +

    SiSU markup is fairly minimalistic, +it consists of: a (largely optional) document header, made up of information +about the document (such as when it was published, who authored it, and +granting what rights) and any processing instructions; and markup within +the substantive text of the document, which is related to document structure +and typeface. SiSU must be able to discern the structure of a document, +(text headings and their levels in relation to each other), either from +information provided in the document header or from markup within the text +(or from a combination of both). Processing is done against an abstraction +of the document comprising of information on the document’s structure and +its objects,[2] which the program serializes (providing the object numbers) +and which are assigned hash sum values based on their content. This abstraction +of information about document structure, objects, (and hash sums), provides +considerable flexibility in representing documents different ways and for +different purposes (e.g. search, document layout, publishing, content certification, +concordance etc.), and makes it possible to take advantage of some of the +strengths of established ways of representing documents, (or indeed to +create new ones). +

    33. SUMMARY OF FEATURES +

    * sparse/minimal markup (clean +utf-8 source texts). Documents are prepared in a single UTF-8 file using a +minimalistic mnemonic syntax. Typical literature, documents like headers +are optional. +

    * markup is easily readable/parsable by the human eye, (basic +markup is simpler and more sparse than the most basic HTML), [this  may + also  be  converted  to  XML  representations  of  the  same  input/source  document]. + +

    * markup defines document structure (this may be done once in a header +pattern-match description, or for heading levels individually); basic text +attributes (bold, italics, underscore, strike-through etc.) as required; +and semantic information related to the document (header information, extended +beyond the Dublin core and easily further extended as required); the headers +may also contain processing instructions. SiSU markup is primarily an abstraction +of document structure and document metadata to permit taking advantage +of the basic strengths of existing alternative practical standard ways +of representing documents [be  that  paper  publication,  sql  search  etc.] (html, +epub, xml, odf, latex, pdf, sql) +

    * for output produces reasonably elegant +output of established industry and institutionally accepted open standard +formats.[3] takes advantage of the different strengths of various standard +formats for representing documents, amongst the output formats currently +supported are: +

    * html - both as a single scrollable text and a segmented +document
    + +

    * xhtml
    + +

    * epub
    + +

    * XML - both in sax and dom style xml structures for further development +as
    + required
    + +

    * ODF - open document format, the iso standard for document storage
    + +

    * LaTeX - used to generate pdf
    + +

    * pdf (via LaTeX)
    + +

    * sql - population of an sql database, (at the same object level that +is
    + used to cite text within a document)
    + +

    Also produces: concordance files; document content certificates (md5 +or sha256 digests of headings, paragraphs, images etc.) and html manifests +(and sitemaps of content). (b) takes advantage of the strengths implicit +in these very different output types, (e.g. PDFs produced using typesetting +of LaTeX, databases populated with documents at an individual object/paragraph +level, making possible granular search (and related possibilities)) +

    * +ensuring content can be cited in a meaningful way regardless of selected +output format. Online publishing (and publishing in multiple document formats) +lacks a useful way of citing text internally within documents (important +to academics generally and to lawyers) as page numbers are meaningless +across browsers and formats. sisu seeks to provide a common way of pinpoint +the text within a document, (which can be utilized for citation and by +search engines). The outputs share a common numbering system that is meaningful +(to man and machine) across all digital outputs whether paper, screen, +or database oriented, (pdf, HTML, EPUB, xml, sqlite, postgresql), this +numbering system can be used to reference content. +

    * Granular search within +documents. SQL databases are populated at an object level (roughly headings, +paragraphs, verse, tables) and become searchable with that degree of granularity, +the output information provides the object/paragraph numbers which are +relevant across all generated outputs; it is also possible to look at just +the matching paragraphs of the documents in the database; [output  indexing + also  work  well  with  search  indexing tools  like  hyperestraier]. +

    *longtermmaintainabilityofdocumentcollectionsinaworldofchanging +formats, having a very sparsely marked-up source document base. there is +a considerable degree of future-proofing, output representations are upgradeable +(open document text) module in 2006, epub in 2009 and in future html5 output +sometime in future, without modification of existing prepared texts +

    * +SQL search aside, documents are generated as required and static once generated. + +

    * documents produced are static files, and may be batch processed, this +needs to be done only once but may be repeated for various reasons as desired +(updated content, addition of new output formats, updated technology document +presentations/representations) +

    * document source (plaintext utf-8) if + +

    shared on the net may be used as input and processed locally to produce + +

    the different document outputs +

    * document source may be bundled together +(automatically) with associated documents (multiple language versions or +master document with inclusions) and images and sent as a zip file called +a sisupod, if shared on the net these too may be processed locally to produce + +

    the desired document outputs +

    * generated document outputs may automatically +be posted to remote sites. +

    * for basic document generation, the only software +dependency is Ruby , and a few standard Unix tools (this covers plaintext, +HTML, EPUB, XML, ODF, LaTeX). To use a database you of course need that, +and to convert the LaTeX generated to pdf, a latex processor like tetex +or texlive. +

    * as a developers tool it is flexible and extensible +

    Syntax +highlighting for SiSU markup is available for a number of text editors. + +

    SiSU is less about document layout than about finding a way with little +markup to be able to construct an abstract representation of a document +that makes it possible to produce multiple representations of it which +may be rather different from each other and used for different purposes, +whether layout and publishing, or search of content +

    i.e. to be able to +take advantage from this minimal preparation starting point of some of +the strengths of rather different established ways of representing documents +for different purposes, whether for search (relational database, or indexed +flat files generated for that purpose whether of complete documents, or +say of files made up of objects), online viewing (e.g. html, xml, pdf), or +paper publication (e.g. pdf)... +

    the solution arrived at is by extracting structural +information about the document (about headings within the document) and +by tracking objects (which are serialized and also given hash values) in +the manner described. It makes possible representations that are quite different +from those offered at present. For example objects could be saved individually +and identified by their hashes, with an index of how the objects relate +to each other to form a document. +
