Description Julie 2012-11-27 03:18:31 UTC
Description of problem:
In 7.1.2 step 9 and 7.1.3 step 7, two commands are written in the same screen output box. This may cause confusion to readers. Suggest to display them in two screen output boxes.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):3.0

Steps to Reproduce:
1.http://jfearn.fedorapeople.org/en-US/Publican/3.0/html-single/Users_Guide/index.html#sect-Users_Guide-Website-structure-product-version-manual (step 7)
2.http://jfearn.fedorapeople.org/en-US/Publican/3.0/html-single/Users_Guide/index.html#sect-Users_Guide-Website-homepage-manual (step 9)

  
Actual results:
<screen>
publican build --publish --formats html-single --embedtoc --langs all 
publican install_book --site_config ~/docsite/foomaster.cfg --lang Language_Code
</screen>

Expected results:
<screen>
publican build --publish --formats html-single --embedtoc --langs all 
</screen>
<screen>
publican install_book --site_config ~/docsite/foomaster.cfg --lang Language_Code
</screen>

Additional Info:
Please check throughout the book.

This commit adds prompts to all commands in the Users Guide.

It is now clear where all commands start and stop.

7.1.2.

FailedQA: Neither of the suggested fixes had fixed the problem.

* Commands are not split into two boxes as suggested.
* A single prompt appears instead of two:

$ publican build --publish --formats html-single --embedtoc --langs all 
publican install_book --site_config ~/docsite/foomaster.cfg --lang Language_Code

7.1.3.

Yeah, it's not what the reporter asked for, but thinking about it, adding prompts throughout might actually be a better solution to the underlying problem reported in this bug: that readers might not know where new commands start. 

The missing second prompts are a problem though; I've just added them in 145f7bc..a70f9d3  devel -> devel

Yep, I meant that neither of the proposed fixes was available in the document. Verified fixes now in 7.1.2. and 7.1.3.

The fix for this bug has been shipped in publican 3.2.0
