# <a name='description'></a>DESCRIPTION

# <a name='section2'></a>OVERVIEW

## <a name='subsection1'></a>What is this document?

This document is currently mainly a placeholder, to be filled with commonly
asked questions about the doctools markup language and companions, and their
answers\.

Please report any questions \(and, if possible, answers\) we should consider for
this document as explained in the section [Bugs, Ideas,
Feedback](#section4) below\.

# <a name='section3'></a>EXAMPLES

## <a name='subsection2'></a>Where do I find doctools examples?

We have no direct examples of documents written using doctools markup\. However
the doctools processor __[dtplite](\.\./\.\./apps/dtplite\.md)__ does
generate a table of contents when processing a set of documents written in
doctools markup\. The intermediate file for it uses doctools markup and is not
deleted when generation completes\. Such files can therefore serve as examples\.

__[dtplite](\.\./\.\./apps/dtplite\.md)__ is distributed as part of Tcllib,
so to get it you need one of

  1. A snapshot of Tcllib\. How to retrieve such a snapshot and the tools
     required for this are described at [Development
     Snapshots](/wiki?name=Development\+Snapshots)

  1. A Tcllib release archive\. They are available at the [home](/home) page\.

# <a name='section4'></a>Bugs, Ideas, Feedback

This document, and the package it describes, will undoubtedly contain bugs and
other problems\. Please report such in the category *doctools* of the [Tcllib
Trackers](http://core\.tcl\.tk/tcllib/reportlist)\. Please also report any ideas
for enhancements you may have for either package and/or documentation\.

When proposing code changes, please provide *unified diffs*, i\.e the output of
__diff \-u__\.

Note further that *attachments* are strongly preferred over inlined patches\.
Attachments can be made by going to the __Edit__ form of the ticket
immediately after its creation, and then using the left\-most button in the
secondary navigation bar\.
