xml to html markup transformations:
<programlisting> --> <pre class="programlisting">
<screen> --> <pre class="screen">
<computeroutput> --> <tt class="computeroutput">
<literal> --> <tt>
<emphasis> --> <i>
<command> --> <b class="command">
<blockquote> --> <div class="blockquote">
<blockquote class="blockquote">
Important: inside <screen> and <programlisting> blocks, do NOT
use 'html entities' in your markup, eg. '&lt;' If you *do* use
them, they will be output verbatim, which is not what you want.

To achieve this:
This is a paragraph of text before a list:
* some text
* some more text
and this is some more text after the list.
Do this:
<para>This is a paragraph of text before a list:</para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>some text</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>some more text</para>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
----------------------------------------------
To achieve this:
For further details, see <a href="clientreq">The Mechanism</a>
Do this:
Given:
<sect1 id="clientreq" xreflabel="The Mechanism">
<title>The Mechanism</title>
<para>...</para>
</sect1>
Then do:
For further details, see <xref linkend="clientreq"/>.
----------------------------------------------
To achieve this:
<p><b>Warning:</b> Only do this if ...</p>
Do this:
<formalpara>
<title>Warning:</title>
<para>Only do this if ...</para>
</formalpara>
Or this:
<para><command>Warning:</command> Only do this if ... </para>
----------------------------------------------
To achieve this:
<p>It uses the Eraser algorithm described in:<br />
<br />
Eraser: A Dynamic Data Race Detector for Multithreaded Programs<br />
Stefan Savage, Michael Burrows, Patrick Sobalvarro and Thomas Anderson<br />
ACM Transactions on Computer Systems, 15(4):391-411<br />
November 1997.<br />

To achieve this:
<pre>
/* Hook to delay things long enough so we can get the pid
and attach GDB in another shell. */
if (0) {
Int p, q;
for ( p = 0; p < 50000; p++ )
for ( q = 0; q < 50000; q++ ) ;
</pre>
Do this:
<programlisting><![CDATA[
/* Hook to delay things long enough so we can get the pid
and attach GDB in another shell. */
if (0) {
Int p, q;
for ( p = 0; p < 50000; p++ )
for ( q = 0; q < 50000; q++ ) ;
}]]></programlisting>
(do the same thing for <screen> tag)
----------------------------------------------
To achieve this:
where <i><code>TAG</code></i> has the ...
Do this:
where <emphasis><computeroutput>TAG</computeroutput></emphasis> has the ...
Note: you cannot put <emphasis> inside <computeroutput>, unfortunately.
