How We Wrote the Template Toolkit Book ...: msg#00096

Subject: How We Wrote the Template Toolkit Book ...
That was a nice article, Dave:
http://www.perl.com/pub/a/2004/01/30/ttbook.html

We used POD too to write 'practical mod_perl', and yes we needed to deal with the same problems you are talking about. And we used tt2 to generate the output (via DocSet). But how did you deal with ORA editors (which were kind to accept the raw pod!)? Once they take the source they will reformat everything in their way. Did you just hand them the output of your POD postprocessor? If so, how did you merge any changes back? In our case we just had to drop our sources and move onto the expanded ORA sources (which uses their own extended POD tags). We couldn't merge changes back as they were too numerous to justify the time needed to do that.

Finally, may be ORA could adopt your templating setup for other books written in POD.
