Hi I'm relatively new to docbook and hope this is the correct forum for this type of question. We're documenting software and often refer to various protocols, etc., for example, http, tcp, ssh, telnet, etc. In some instances we discuss the protocol itself, in others it's included in a list of options, etc. I originally intended using but for whatever reason it's not supported in the version we're using (4.3). On the other hand, these are all abbreviations, so ought I be using ? Is there a case for both depending on context? It may well be one of those "What does your style guide say?" questions. We're in the process of writing it Thanks for any suggestions, especially references where I can find these sort of answers myself! I use the docbook site often but it doesn't really address these questions. cheers -- /David
