Hey all, finally a new webgen release :-) More information and install instructions below! Thanks for all the help and feedback! Bye, Thomas ------------------- About ===== webgen is used to generate web pages from page and template files. You create one or more template files in which you define the layout of your page and where the content should go. After that you create page files in which you only define the content. When webgen is run it combines the template with each of the page files and generates the HTML output files. During this process special tags are substituted so that, for example, a menu is generated. More information on webgen can be found on its homepage: http://webgen.rubyforge.org Major changes ============= * New website layout ;-) * webgen now includes many predefined website styles * Template files can now be nested! * New content converter plugin (ContentConverter/XmlBuilder) * New plugin for syntax highlighting (Misc/SyntaxHighlighter) * Many changes to the core * "Static" menus now available * Many tests have been added. * More complete documentation * Fixed many bugs * Many, many other changes Thanks for all the feedback!!!
