= olddoc - old-fashioned Ruby documentation generator
olddoc contains old-fashioned document generators for those who do not
wish to impose bloated, new-fangled web cruft on their readers.
olddoc contains dark216, a HTML generator without any images, frames,
or JavaScript. It is designed for users of text-based browsers
and/or low-bandwidth connections; yet respects user preference for
light color schemes in new CSS browsers while favoring darkness for
power savings on OLED and CRT displays. dark216 focuses on text as
it is the lowest common denominator for accessibility and compatibility
with people and hardware.
== Reasons
* No CSS required. Encouraging users to use CSS leads to problems like
copy-paste hijacking: https://thejh.net/misc/website-terminal-copy-paste
External CSS also increases page load time as it often blocks page
rendering. Asynchronous loading of CSS also causes accessibility
problems as links/buttons may move as a user attempts to click.
* No JavaScript. There is a constant barrage of security and
client-side performance problems associated with it. It's also
unreasonable to expect users to rely on LibreJS and inspect every
piece of JS they run.
* No frames. Frames are an accessibility hassle and unfriendly
to users of tiny screens on mobile devices and text-based browsers.
* No images. Not everyone can view or afford bandwidth to load images.
This also reduces the potential for security vulnerabilities as less
code gets run. Furthermore, loading the wrong image in a public
place can get you arrested (or worse).
Encourage readers to simplify and speed up their browsing experience.
They can disable CSS, JavaScript, and images in their browser without
missing out!
== Usage
gem install olddoc
cd $ANY_RDOC_USING_RUBY_PROJECT
rdoc -f dark216
You can also use olddoc to generate NEWS entries
assuming you have git tags, a README file and .olddoc.yml
olddoc prepare
And "olddoc merge" to merge instances of "olddoc_placeholder" in
an HTML file with HTML fragments generated with other tools
such as pandoc(1). This requries an appropriately configured
.olddoc.yml with a "merge_html" section see olddoc(5)
