Zope BackTalk is a document editing, commenting, and publication system for book-like content. It has the following features: * Content is authorable via Structured Text. Structured Text is plaintext that is provided with structure via the use of indentation and simple inline symbology. For instance, to embolden a phrase, you surround the phrase with **double asterisks**, to make something show in a "literal" sort of font (e.g. code), you surround it with 'single quotes', etc. * Content is organized inside a container named a "Book" while the logical chapters of the book are created in "Documents". You may change the ordering of the documents in a book and of course insert new documents into a book structure, etc. Most of this management is done via the Zope Management interface. * Documents are individually editable via FTP and WebDAV. * The web view of a Book will automatically provide a hyperlinked table of contents and simple "back-forward-up-next" navigation between documents in a Book. * A Document is a collection of paragrahs (as decided by structured text). * Each paragraph in each Document supports the addition of comments through a web interface as well as through direct text entry in the Structured Text source. * A Book supports a printable rendering to PDF with or without the inclusion of comments. -- System Information Debian Release: 3.0 Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux wr-linux02 2.4.17 #1 Mit Jan 23 14:00:21 CET 2002 i686 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]
