A. How is this document generated

So you want to know how I generated this HOWTO? Or, did you download SGML version of this document, modified some portions in it and now want to know how you can create HOWTO? [NPM Package: Search algorithm]

I made sure there are no errors in my SGML by first typing the command .:: speakerdeck.com ::. .:: telegra.ph ::. .:: telegra.ph ::. nsgmls -s ataraid.sgml. I created a script called makehowto and ran the command ./makehowto ataraid.sgml. Here is the my makehowto script:

Option 'all' is default if sgml file is the only option supplied.

Options:
-------
tut	Make complete tutorial, i.e., generate necessary html files
html	Make a printable single HTML file
pdf	Make a PDF file
tex	Make a TeX source file, gzipped
dvi	Make a DVI file, gzipped
ps	Make a PostScript file, gzipped
all	Generate all possible formats.

You can also just type ./makehowto ataraid.sgml pdf, for example, if you just want create PDF version. Just type .:: co.pinterest.com ::. [Google Scholar: MongoDB] .:: bcraweb.bcra.gob.ar ::. ./makehowto to get more help on using the script. Click here to download this makehowto script.
