``` Gerbil ``` Gerbil is an extensible document generator based on eRuby that outputs to any format you want: plain text, HTML, LaTeX, UNIX man page, your own custom format, and so on. ``` http://gerbil.rubyforge.org ``` ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Gerbil 3.0.0 Contents • Caution • Repairs This release improves the unindent feature and changes the include directive’s syntax. In related news, the project mailing list has been dismantled in favor of simply contacting the author directly (see e-mail address in LICENSE) to get help or provide feedback. 1 Caution • The $unindent parameter has been replaced by the –unindent command-line option, which automatically unindents each line of input by the inner margin of its containing node. • The include directive now has a symmetric # at the closing end: ``` <%# include ... #%> ``` 2 Repairs • In the HTML format, whitespace has been added (in CSS) around the following nodes to make them conform more easily with the style of the rest of the document: â–¡ header\_outside\_above – above the entire header block â–¡ header\_inside\_above – above the default header content â–¡ header\_inside\_below – below the default header content â–¡ header\_outside\_below – below the entire header block â–¡ footer\_outside\_above – above the entire footer block â–¡ footer\_inside\_above – above the default footer content â–¡ footer\_inside\_below – below the default footer content â–¡ footer\_outside\_below – below the entire footer block
