docbook: Thread: First post...

Beginning to climb a mountain :)

I'm looking for tags for annotating code (they need to be lower case  for
XML right?:

    <programlisting>

    <screen>

    <screenshot>

    <function>

    <parameter>

    <varname>

    <returnvalue>

Where can I find out more about <funcsynopsss> and <cmdsynopsis>? Also are
there any simple examples of code mark up out there that anyone can point me
to?

Tags are well-documented in "DocBook: The Definitive Guide" (note
that this is the latest rev, under development)

   http://docbook.org/tdg/en/html/docbook.html

for example,

cmdsynopsis  -  http://docbook.org/tdg/en/html/cmdsynopsis.html
funcsynopsis -  http://docbook.org/tdg/en/html/funcsynopsis.html

Generally, I use <programlisting> for all my code snippets.
