doc: Remove in source documentation and the asciidoc package
The RSB documentation is now in ReST format and part of the RTEMS Documentation project. See https://docs.rtems.org/. Remove support for the GPL based asciidoc tool and remove the asciidoc package from the RSB. Add the Python Markdown package and update the reporter to use Markdown for HTML generation. The resuling HTML report is a single self contained file. Closes #3047.

- AsciiDoc Installation
-
- version 8.6.8, 17 July 2012
-
- Note
- The current version of AsciiDoc requires Python 2.4 or newer to run. If
- you don’t already have an up-to-date version of Python installed it can
- be downloaded from the official Python website
- [1]http://www.python.org/.
- __________________________________________________________________
-
-1. Prerequisites
-
- See the [2]README page.
- __________________________________________________________________
-
-2. Installing from the Mercurial repository
-
- The AsciiDoc [3]Mercurial repository is hosted by [4]Google Code. To
- browse the repository go to
- [5]http://code.google.com/p/asciidoc/source/browse/. You can install
- AsciiDoc from the repository if you don’t have an up to date packaged
- version or want to get the latest version from the trunk:
- * Make sure you have [6]Mercurial installed, you can check with:
- $ hg --version
- * Go to the directory you want to install AsciiDoc into and download
- the repository. This example gets the 8.6.8 tagged release:
- $ cd ~/bin
- $ hg clone -r 8.6.8 https://asciidoc.googlecode.com/hg/ asciidoc-8.6.8
-
- You now have two choices: you can run asciidoc locally from your
- repository or you can use autoconf(1) and make(1) to perform a
- system-wide install.
-
- 2.1. Running asciidoc from your local copy
-
- Create a symlink to the AsciiDoc script in a search PATH directory so
- it’s easy to execute asciidoc from the command-line, for example:
- $ ln -s ~/bin/asciidoc-8.6.8/asciidoc.py ~/bin/asciidoc
- $ ln -s ~/bin/asciidoc-8.6.8/a2x.py ~/bin/a2x
-
- Use the Mercurial pull command to update your local AsciiDoc
- repository.
-
- 2.2. Installing asciidoc for all users
-
- Create configure using autoconf(1); use configure to create the
- Makefile; run make(1); build the man pages; install:
-
- $ autoconf
- $ ./configure
- $ make
- $ sudo make install
-
- To uninstall:
-
- $ sudo make uninstall
- __________________________________________________________________
-
-3. Distribution tarball installation
-
- The distribution source tarballs can be downloaded from the SourceForge
- [7]http://sourceforge.net/projects/asciidoc/.
-
- Note
- Unless you are [8]installing on Microsoft Windows you should use the
- tarball and not the zip file to install the the distribution (the
- tarball contains symlinks).
-
- If your flavor or UNIX or Linux does not have a packaged AsciiDoc
- distribution or if you prefer to install the latest AsciiDoc version
- from source use the configure shell script in the tarball root
- directory.
-
- The autoconf(1) generated configure script creates a make file that is
- tailored for your system. To install:
- $ tar -xzf asciidoc-8.6.8.tar.gz
- $ cd asciidoc-8.6.8
- $ ./configure
- $ sudo make install
-
- To install the documentation:
- $ sudo make docs
-
- To uninstall AsciiDoc:
- $ sudo make uninstall
-
- If Vim is installed on your system the AsciiDoc Vim syntax highlighter
- and filetype detection scripts will be install in the global Vim
- configuration file directory (asciidoc.vim in the syntax directory and
- asciidoc_filetype.vim in the ftdetect directory).
- __________________________________________________________________
-
-4. Microsoft Windows installation
-
- AsciiDoc is developed and tested on Linux but there seem to be quite a
- few people using it on Windows. To install AsciiDoc on Windows unzip
- the distribution Zip file contents:
- $ unzip asciidoc-8.6.8.zip
-
- This will create the folder asciidoc-8.6.8 containing the asciidoc.py
- and a2x.py executables along with configuration files and
- documentation.
-
- To generate DocBook based outputs (e.g. PDFs) you will also need a
- working DocBook toolchain. Installing and configuring a DocBook
- toolchain on Windows can be a challenge — this blog post explains
- [9]How to Create Handsome PDF Documents Without Frustration using
- [10]Cygwin, [11]dblatex and AsciiDoc.
- __________________________________________________________________
-
-5. Testing your installation
-
- Test out asciidoc by changing to the AsciiDoc application directory and
- convert the User Guide document (./doc/asciidoc.txt) to XHTML
- (./doc/asciidoc.html):
- $ python asciidoc.py doc/asciidoc.txt
-
- [12]testasciidoc offers a more extensive set of conformance tests,
- though you do need to create the test data before running the tests
- (this in itself is a good post-install test):
- $ python ./tests/testasciidoc.py update
-
- Now you can run the tests by executing this command:
- $ python ./tests/testasciidoc.py run
-
- A full battery of tests can be run from the main.aap script in the
- distribution root directory:
- $ aap test
- __________________________________________________________________
-
-6. Building the distribution
-
- The AsciiDoc distribution is built using [13]A-A-P (a software build
- system written by Bram Moolenaar). The AsciiDoc A-A-P scripts are:
-
- ./main.aap
- Builds the distribution tarball and zip files, documentation and
- example website.
-
- ./doc/main.aap
- Builds distribution documentation.
-
- ./examples/website/main.aap
- Builds AsciiDoc website.
-
- ./common.aap
- Included in all scripts.
-
- To build the distribution tarball and zip files, documentation and
- example website run A-A-P from the distribution root directory:
- $ aap

-
-7. Prepackaged AsciiDoc installation
-
- The following platform specific AsciiDoc packages are available:
-
- Debian GNU/Linux
- If you use Debian or a Debian based distribution there’s an
- [14]AsciiDoc Debian package available. Thanks to [15]Fredrik
- Steen who built and maintains the Debian AsciiDoc package.
-
- Gentoo Linux
- If you use Gentoo Linux there’s a [16]Gentoo AsciiDoc package
- available. Thanks to [17]Brandon Philips for writing the ebuild.
-
- Fedora Linux
- With help from Terje Røsten, Chris Wright added asciidoc to
- Fedora Extras which is available in the default installation. To
- install asciidoc execute the following command:
-
- $ yum install asciidoc
-
- Slackware Linux
- John Calixto has created a Slackware package for AsciiDoc which
- can be downloaded from [18]http://linuxpackages.net/.
-
- Ark Linux
- [19]Bernhard Rosenkraenzer added AsciiDoc to Ark Linux — the
- package is available from the Ark Linux repository at
- [20]http://arklinux.osuosl.org/dockyard-devel/, so Ark Linux
- users should just run apt-get install asciidoc.
-
- T2 Linux
- [21]Christian Wiese added AsciiDoc to the [22]T2 Linux
- repository at
- [23]http://svn.exactcode.de/t2/trunk/package/textproc/asciidoc/.
- To build and install the package on a T2 system, run
- ./scripts/Emerge-Pkg asciidoc from within your T2 source
- directory (default: /usr/src/t2-src).
-
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Fedora and CentOS packages
- Dag Wieers has built AsciiDoc RPMs for a number of Red Hat based
- distributions, they can be downloaded from
- [24]http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/asciidoc/.
-
- CSW Package for Sun Solaris
- Ben Walton has created a CSW package for AsciiDoc, you can find
- it here: [25]http://opencsw.org/packages/asciidoc.
