I'm glad someone mentioned the Alien DOOM mod. This was the first and only
thing to spring to mind for me. It would probably be tame by comparison
now but at the time it scared the hell out of me. I sure hope the guy who
made it has gone on to be successful because it was, in my mind, a work of
art.
Well, they recently tried to burn down a goodly portion of it, if that's any help. And I do believe there was some bombing done by Americans, albeit from helicopters using water.
I have a DIY documentation system that is (so far) good enough for my needs. I started righting documentation in HTML but wanted to produce nice hardcopy as well. Rather than writing it twice; once in HTML, once in LaTeX, I turned my HTML docs into HTML-like XML and wrote myself some
XSL transforms that produce either proper HTML or LaTeX. At some stage I'll probably do a transform to produce XSL-FO (formatting objects) which I can run through the Apache Group's
FOP
to produce PDFs.
I know it's reinventing the wheel but I was learning XSL at that stage and my documentation requirements are pretty lean.
