2005-07-08  Michael Smith <xmldoc@users.sourceforge.net>

        * lib.xweb: Added prepend-pad function for right-padding strings to a specific
        length.

2005-06-28  Michael Smith <xmldoc@users.sourceforge.net>

        * lib.xweb: Fixed typo.

2005-06-27  Michael Smith <xmldoc@users.sourceforge.net>

        * lib.xweb: Added an "apply-string-subst-map" function (template). Only
        difference is that in the map that it expects, "oldstring" and
        "newstring" attributes are used instead of "character" and
        "string" attributes.

2005-06-22  Michael Smith <xmldoc@users.sourceforge.net>

        * lib.xweb: Finalized read-character-map() and apply-character-map() functions.

2005-06-18  Michael Smith <xmldoc@users.sourceforge.net>

        * lib.xweb: Added initial versions of replace-chars-with-strings() and
        apply-character-map() functions. These are intended mainly for use
        in the manpages stylesheets but may be useful elsewhere too.
        
        I need to fix the logic in the manpages stylesheet so that the
        character-map file is read only once per document. The way it is
        now, the character map is read each time a refentry is found,
        which is a big waste.

2005-05-23  Michael Smith <xmldoc@users.sourceforge.net>

        * lib.xweb: Make handling of date format strings more robust (closes #1206837).
        
        ::Problem:
          If the "dbtimestamp" PI has words in it that contain any of the
          single-letter characters used as date/time formatting
          instructions, the output is not what would be expected.
        
          For example, Spanish "long" dates look like this:
        
            23 de mayo de 2005
        
          So you would expect that you could generate a date of that form
          using the dbtimestamp PI with a format string like the following:
        
            <?dbtimestamp format="d de B de Y"?>
        
          But if you try that, you get the following output:
        
            23 23e mayo 23e 2005
        
          That is, the "d" in "de" is replaced with the day of the month.
        
        ::Cause::
          The format-string parsing logic works by walking through the
          format string character-by-character. So when it gets to the "d"
          in "de", it has no way of discerning that it is not the "d"
          formatting instruction but is instead part of a word intended to
          be included in the output as a literal string.
        
        ::Fix::
          The format-string parsing logic now splits format strings into
          tokens and delimiters and evaluates them token-by-token instead
          of character-by-character.
        
          For example, it splits the Spanish "long" date format like this:
        
            <token>d</token> <token>de</token> <token>B</token> ...
        
          Thus, in looking for the "d" formatting instruction, the "d"
          token matches but the "de" token does not.
        
          As delimiters, it recognizes the following characters:
        
            <space> <tab> <CR> <LF> , . / - ( ) [ ]
        
        ::Affects:
          This change affects output of the "dbtimestamp" PI as well as
          output from any customization layers that call the
          "datetime.format" template. It affect all formats (HTML, FO, etc.).

2003-04-05  Adam Di Carlo <adicarlo@users.sourceforge.net>

        * lib.xweb: a pica is 12 points, rather than a sixth of an inch

2003-03-26  Michael Smith <xmldoc@users.sourceforge.net>

        * Makefile: branches:  1.5.2;
        wdocbook.xsl obsoleted by w2docbook.xsl, updated globally

        * Makefile: reverting wdocbook.xsl -> w2docbook.xsl changes

2003-03-05  Michael Smith <xmldoc@users.sourceforge.net>

        * Makefile: 
        
        Wrong filename was breaking build, fixed.
        
          Had ../../litprog/wdocbook.xsl but needed ../../litprog/w2docbook.xsl

2002-09-15  Norman Walsh <nwalsh@users.sourceforge.net>

        * lib.xweb: Fix bug where PIs match the suffix of a name instead of the whole name

2002-05-12  Norman Walsh <nwalsh@users.sourceforge.net>

        * lib.xweb: Changed default units to px; added length-in-points template

2002-03-25  Norman Walsh <nwalsh@users.sourceforge.net>

        * .cvsignore: Ignore lib.xsl too

        * .cvsignore, Makefile, lib.xsl, lib.xweb: Use Literate XML to generate lib.xsl

        * Makefile: Update documentation build to reflect use of lib.xweb

2002-03-18  Norman Walsh <nwalsh@users.sourceforge.net>

        * lib.xsl: Replace generate.*.toc and generate.*.lot with single generate.toc parameter.

2002-03-14  Norman Walsh <nwalsh@users.sourceforge.net>

        * lib.xsl: Whitespace only: change CR/LF back to LF. Norm was a total moron.

        * lib.xsl: Whitespace changes only: use PC-style CR/LF because Unix clients choke on this far less often than PC clients choke on the reverse. Grrr.

        * lib.xsl: Added length-units template to extract units from lengths
