Simply use the Makefile
provided. I supports a number of targets. We regularly build html
, singlehtml
and latexpdf
, so these aught to work out of the box. The resulting files will end up in the _build
directory.
Screenshots are used by the screenshots.qml
files located inside each chapter directory. This relies on the shorty
utility . Simply run make-screenshots.sh
to automatically invoke shorty
on all screenshots.qml
files in the source tree.
