(i apologize for this rapid collection of complaints/observations,
but i was asked if i could give a short tutorial on publican so i'm
going thru the docs and help info carefully just to check for gotchas.
in short, i am not *trying* to be annoying -- i am merely succeeding.)
$ publican create --help
create
Create a new Book|Set|Article
Options:
--name=<NAME> The name of the Book|Article|Set|Brand
--version=<VERSION> The version of the product
--edition=<EDITION> The edition of the Book|Article|Set
--product=<PRODUCT> The name of the product
--brand=<BRAND> The brand to use
--lang=<LANG> The language the XML will be written in
--type=<TYPE> The type (Book|Article|Set)
$
why does the intro line refer to "Book|Set|Article", while the
"--name" line additionally refers to the possible creation of a
"Brand" as well? should those two sets not be identical? oh, and the
"--type" and "--edition" lines go back to *not* mentioning a "Brand."
