The future "master format" that you may hear people talk about will have something like this. PGTEI uses a divGen line to add the license when the master file is converted to text or html or PDF or ... The true ease will be in that changing one master license file will update the license in all the files in the archive. But, for legal reasons, we need the license in all the text and html files.

I know this is likely not practical but I would like to see a read-only medium where the legalese was exised out of the texts and stored in a license.txt in the root of the file system. This would save a ton of space and allow for more texts within the iso.I appreciate that the legal text has changed over the years and is not consistant for all books but a notation "Licence--#01" or whatever at the head of the book would allow you to cross-reference the license file. Surely a one line system such as this would save bandwidth and storage space while maintaining whatever legal requirements that must be met. _______________________________________________ gutvol-d mailing list gutvol-d@lists.pglaf.org http://lists.pglaf.org/listinfo.cgi/gutvol-d
