<h2>NAME</h2>

<p style="text-align:justify">
zoem faq FAQ - faqs and facts about the Zoem faq language.

<p style="text-align:justify">
This document describes the zoem faq language in the style of a FAQ.

<a name="description"></a>
<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
The zoem faq macros extend the zoem manual macros; a zoem faq document
must import both sets of macros. There are only a few additional faq
macros. The overall layout of a faq document is as follows:
<pre>
.....
\import{man.zmm}
\import{faq.zmm}
.....
\"man::preamble"
\"faq::preamble"
.....
\${html}{\"man::maketoc"}
.....
\sec{toc}{TOC}
\"faq::maketoc"
.....
\begin{faqsec}{{ref}{Labelx}{cap}{Captionx}}
.....
\end{faqsec}
\begin{faqsec}{{ref}{Labely}{cap}{Captiony}}
.....
\end{faqsec}
.....
\"man::postamble"</pre>

<p style="text-align:justify">
The zoem manual macros are documented in the
<a class="local" href="man_zmm.html">man_zmm</a> manual page.

Well, you need to make a copy of the faq macros and
possibly the man macros, and hack those changes in.
Zoem itself is very flexible, but the zoem FAQ macros
are not, in this respect. They can be made so, if you wish.
If you just want to change or add some style sheet rules for
the HTML version, it will be quite easy.
The same holds for changing font styles and possibly
even spacing rules.

There are a lot of guidelines on writing FAQs out there, a Google search
yields plenty. I stopped looking at them when confronted too often with the
advice that FAQs be written in some standard like DocBook. DocBook
seems to be an ontology of some sort aimed at conceptualizing
every way in which you would ever want to document. Such a categorization
ideal is akin to the feverish dreams of philosophers and librarians alike.
Pursueing it invariably leads to horrific monstrosities from
which all life and conceivable causes for joy have withered away. The
preconconcted DocBook manual page tags are enough to make little scary
arthropods scurry away.
