3rsync documentation is now primarily in Docbook format. Docbook is an
4SGML/XML documentation format that is becoming standard on free
5operating systems. It's also used for Samba documentation.

7The SGML files are source code that can be translated into various
8useful output formats, primarily PDF, HTML, Postscript and plain text.

10To do this transformation on Debian, you should install the
11docbook-utils package. Having done that, you can say
