The docbook2mdoc utility is a converter from DocBook V4.x and v5.x XML into mdoc. Unlike most DocBook utilities, it's a standalone ISC-licensed ISO C utility that should compile on any modern UNIX system. The only requirement is libexpat (for parsing XML), which is installed by default on most systems.

docbook2mdoc is experimental: it still has many missing elements. However, it works with the DocBook reference examples and documents found in the wild. Contact Kristaps with questions or missing nodes; or better yet, download the source and add new elements yourself as described in the README.

New in version @VERSION@...

Now supports all tags as found in the RefDB tool, which claims to have extensive DocBook documentation.
