Vous voudriez savoir comment j'ai généré ce guide pratique ? Ou bien vous avez téléchargé la version SGML de ce document, modifié des morceaux et vous voudriez maintenant savoir comment vous pourriez fabriquer le guide pratique ?

Je dois m'assurer qu'il n'y a pas d'erreurs dans mon source SGML en tapant la commande nsgmls -s ataraid.sgml. J'ai créé un script appellé makehowto et lancé la commande ./makehowto ataraid.sgml. Voici mon script makehowto :
