PHB Build Tools: RFC Tool

The RFC Tool converts specifications written in HTML, Markdown, XML or Microsoft Word to the formats required by Internet standards organizations.

Currently, the only format supported is the IETF RFC format but support for W3C and OASIS formats would only require an appropriate output module to be written.

Layout control

I don't actually believe layout is something that the document author should control. These are features provided for the benefit of the reader and the choice of whether they should be displayed belongs to them.

  • master
  • navigator
  • toc
  • tof
  • tor
  • tod
