@cindex SGML Declaration

PSGML is a major mode for editing SGML documents.  It works with GNU
Emacs 19.19 and later or with Lucid Emacs 19.9 and later.  PSGML
contains a simple SGML parser and can work with any DTD.  Functions
provided includes menus and commands for inserting tags with only the
contextually valid tags, identification of structural errors, editing of
attribute values in a separate window with information about types and
defaults, and structure based editing.

SGML, a language for encoding the structure of a document, is an ISO
standard: ISO 8879:1986 ``Information processing -- Text and office
systems -- Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML)''.

A good introduction to SGML is @cite{A Gentle Introduction to SGML}
produced by Text Encoding Initiative (this is really chapter 2 of TEI
P3).  This can be found on

@display
@file{ftp://ftp.ifi.uio.no/pub/SGML/TEI/P3SG.DOC}.
@end display

A SGML document has three major parts, in order:

@enumerate
@item
SGML Declaration (@samp{<!SGML "ISO 8879:1986" @dots{} >})
@item
Document Type Declaration (@samp{<!DOCTYPE @var{name} @dots{} >})
@item
Document Element (@samp{<@var{name}> @dots{} </@var{name}>})
@end enumerate

The SGML declaration contains general information about character sets,
concrete syntax, and SGML features used.  PSGML does not use the SGML
Declaration, it can be left out, and if included is ignored.  Many SGML
systems allow the SGML declaration to be defaulted.  PSGML always use
the Concrete Reference Syntax but without limitations on
lengths.  Features used has to be indicated with variables (@pxref{SGML
declaration}).

The document type declaration specifies the valid elements and entities
and how they can be nested. A document type is usually needed, but can
reside in another file (@pxref{Managing the DTD}).

The system declaration for PSGML:
@example
SYSTEM "ISO 8879:1986"
   CHARSET
     BASESET  "ISO 646-1983//CHARSET
               International Reference Version (IRV)//ESC 2/5 4/0"
     DESCSET  0 128 0

@chapter Installing PSGML

To install PSGML you first need to uncompress and unpack the source
archive.  This is done with the @code{gunzip} and @code{tar} commands.

@example
gunzip psgml-1.0.1.tar.gz; tar xf psgml-1.0.1.tar
@end example

This should create a subdirectory to the current directory with the
source code. This directory contains a @code{configure} command (see the
file INSTALL for more information about configure).  You can use the
@code{configure} command to configure the package or you can load the
file @file{psgml-maint} and execute the @code{psgml-compile-files}
command.

Place the @file{*.el} and the @file{*.elc} files in a directory where
Emacs can find it (i.e. one of the directories in the @code{load-path}
variable, you can add a directory to this variable in your
@file{.emacs}.)  

If you use the @code{configure} approach, compile psgml with @code{make}
and the you can run @code{make install} to install it in the system
library @file{site-lisp}.  The files are installed in a subdirectory
named @file{psgml}.  The location of @file{site-lisp} is figured out by
@code{configure}, but you can change it in the @file{Makefile}.  You
need to make sure that this subdirectory is in Emacs @code{load-path}.


Put the following line in your .emacs:

@lisp
(autoload 'sgml-mode "psgml" "Major mode to edit SGML files." t )
@end lisp

You may also want to set up search paths for external entities,
@xref{Entity manager}.

The @file{psgml.info} is the documentation for PSGML in the info format.
You can read this with the Emacs command @kbd{C-u C-h i}.  You can also
install the file in your systems info directory and edit the
@file{dir} file to include @file{psgml.info} in the menu.

The info file @file{psgml.info} is created from the texinfo file
@file{psgml.texi}.  The texinfo file can also be used to create a hard
copy of the documentation.  To do this you need the @TeX{} program and a
copy of @file{texinfo.tex}.

@chapter How to invoke PSGML
@cindex invoke
@cindex start up
@cindex major mode

@findex sgml-mode
PSGML defines a major mode called @code{sgml-mode}.  Files with
extensions @file{.sgml}, @file{.sgm} or @file{.dtd} will
automatically be edited in SGML mode.  To edit some other file in
sgml mode, type @kbd{M-x sgml-mode @key{RET}} after finding the
file.

If you can modify the file you can add a @dfn{Local Variables} list
(@pxref{file variables, , Local Variables in Files, emacs, The Emacs
Editor}) to the end of the file.  This can make Emacs
automatically set sgml mode and user options when the file is loaded.
The simplest Local Variables list would look like:

@example
<!--
Local Variables:
mode: sgml
End:
-->
@end example

You can also put a line at the top of the file to tell emacs to use sgml
mode:

@example
<!-- -*- sgml -*- -->
@end example

But remember that you can't have a comment before the @emph{SGML
declaration}.

@chapter The Entity Manager
@cindex public identifier
@cindex system identifier
@cindex external identifier
@cindex entity catalog

@c *** sgml-sysid-resolve-functions

SGML can refer to an external file (really entity) with an
@emph{external identifier}, this is a @emph{public identifier} or a
@emph{system identifier}, or both.

A typical public identifier looks like

@example
PUBLIC "ISO 8879:1986//ENTITIES Added Latin 1//EN"
@end example

@noindent
where ``ISO 8879:1986'' is the owner, ``ENTITIES'' is the text class and
``Added Latin 1'' is the text description (and ``EN'' is language).

A system identifier looks like

@example
SYSTEM "htmlplus.dtd"
@end example

@noindent where ``htmlplus.dtd'' is a system-specific identifier. 

To map external identifiers to file names, PSGML first searches entity
catalog files and then search the list of file name templates in the
variable @code{sgml-public-map}.

The catalog format is according to SGML/Opens resolution on entity
management.  The catalog consists of a series of entries and comments.  A
comment is delimited by @samp{--} like in a markup declaration.
The entry types recognized are described in the following table.

@table @samp

@item public @var{pubid} @var{file}
The @var{file} will be used for the entity text of an entity
with the public identifier @var{pubid}.

@item entity @var{name} @var{file}
The @var{file} will be used for the entity text of an entity
with the name @var{name}.  If the @var{name} starts with a @samp{%} the
rest of the name will be matched against parameter entities.

@item doctype @var{name} @var{file}
The @var{file} will be used for the entity text of an entity
used as external subset of a document declaration with @var{name} as
document type name.

@item sgmldecl @var{file}
Used to specify a default SGML declaration.  Recognized but not used by
PSGML other than to pass to an external validation command
(@code{sgml-validate-command}).

@end table

When PSGML is looking for the file containing an external entity, the
following things will be tried in order:

@enumerate

@vindex sgml-system-identifiers-are-preferred
@item
Try the system identifier, as a file name, if there is a system
identifier and the variable @code{sgml-system-identifiers-are-preferred}
is non-@code{nil} and there is no elements containing @samp{%s} in
@code{sgml-public-map}.  If the system identifier is a relative file name
it will be relative to the directory containing the defining entity.

@item
Look thru each catalog in @code{sgml-local-catalogs} and
@code{sgml-catalog-files} in order.  For each catalog look first for
entries matching the public identifier, if any.  Then look for other
matching entries in the order they appear in the catalog.

Currently an entry will be ignored if it is matching but its file is
non-existent or unreadable.  (This is under reconsideration, perhaps it
should signal error instead).

@item
Try the system identifier, if any, as a file name.
If @code{sgml-system-identifiers-are-preferred} is @code{nil}
and there is no elements containing @samp{%s} in @code{sgml-public-map}.

@item
Try the entries in @code{sgml-public-map}.  Using the catalogs are
preferred.  The @code{sgml-public-map} may disappear in a future version
of PSGML (not soon though).

@end enumerate

The @code{sgml-public-map} variable can contain a list of file name
templates where @samp{%P} will be substituted with the whole public
identifier, owner is substituted for @samp{%O}, public text class for
@samp{%C}, and public text description for @samp{%D}.  The text class
will be converted to lower case and the owner and description will be
transliterated according to the variable
@code{sgml-public-transliterations}.  The templates in the list is tried
in order until an existing file is found.  The @code{sgml-public-map} is
modeled after @file{sgmls} environment variable @code{SGML_PATH} and
psgml understand the following substitution characters: %%, %N, %P, %S,
%Y, %C, %L, %O, %T, and %V.  The the default value of
@code{sgml-public-map} is taken from the environment variable
@code{SGML_PATH}.

Given the public identifier above and the file name template 
@samp{/usr/local/lib/sgml/%o/%c/%d}, the resulting file name is

@example
/usr/local/lib/sgml/ISO_8879:1986/entities/Added_Latin_1
@end example

Note: blanks are transliterated to @samp{_} (and also @samp{/} to
@samp{%}) and the text class is down cased.



@defopt sgml-catalog-files
This is a list of catalog entry files.
The files are in the format defined in the SGML Open Draft Technical
Resolution on Entity Management.  The Emacs variable is initialized from
the environment variable @code{SGML_CATALOG_FILES} or if this variable
is undefined the default is

@lisp
("CATALOG" "/usr/local/lib/sgml/CATALOG")
@end lisp
@end defopt

@defopt sgml-local-catalogs
A list of SGML entity catalogs to be searched first when parsing the
buffer.  This is used in addition to @code{sgml-catalog-files}, and
@code{sgml-public-map}.  This variable is automatically local to the
buffer.
@end defopt

@defopt sgml-system-identifiers-are-preferred
If @code{nil}, PSGML will look up external entities by searching the
catalogs in @code{sgml-local-catalogs} and @code{sgml-catalog-files} and
only if the entity is not found in the catalogs will a given system
identifier be used.  If the variable is non-nil and a system identifier is
given, the system identifier will be used for the entity.  If no system
identifier is given the catalogs will searched.
@end defopt


@defopt sgml-public-map
This should be a list of file name templates.  This variable is
initialized from the environment variable @code{SGML_PATH}.  This is
the same environment variable that @file{sgmls} uses.  If the
environment variable is undefined the default is

@lisp
("%S" "/usr/local/lib/sgml/%o/%c/%d")
@end lisp
@c Mapping from public identifiers to file names.
@end defopt

@c the colon separated list in @code{SGML_PATH} is converted to a lisp list

@chapter Running an external SGML parser

@kindex C-c C-v
@findex sgml-validate
PSGML can not validate an SGML document (see below what it can
and can't do).  If you have a validating SGML parser, like
@file{sgmls}, you can run the parser on your file with the
command @kbd{C-c C-v} (@code{sgml-validate}).

Some variables control this function:

@defopt sgml-validate-command
The shell command to validate an SGML document.

This is a @code{format} control string that by default should contain two
@code{%s} conversion specifications: the first will be replaced by the
value of @code{sgml-declaration} (or the empty string, if nil); the
second will be replaced by the current buffer's file name (or the
empty string, if nil).

If @code{sgml-validate-files} is non-nil, the format string should contain
one @code{%s} conversion specification for each element of its result.

If sgml-validate-command is a list, then every element should be a
string.  The strings will be tried in order and @samp{%}-sequences in the
string will be replaced according to the list below, if the string contains
@samp{%}-sequences with no replacement value the next string will be tried.

@table @code
@item %b
means the visited file of the current buffer

@item %s
means the SGML declaration specified in the sgml-declaration variable

@item %d
means the file containing the DOCTYPE declaration, if not in the buffer 
@end table

The default value is @code{nsgmls -s %s %s}.
@end defopt

@defopt sgml-validate-files
If non-nil, a function of no arguments that returns a list of
file names.  These file names will serve as the arguments to the
@code{sgml-validate-command} format control string instead of
the defaults.
@end defopt

@defopt sgml-declaration
The name of the SGML declaration file.
@end defopt

@defopt sgml-offer-save
If non-nil, @kbd{C-c C-v} (@code{sgml-validate}) will ask about
saving modified buffers before running the validate command.
The default value is @code{t}.
@end defopt


@kindex C-c C-o
@findex sgml-next-trouble-spot
The built-in parser can find some markup errors.  The command @kbd{C-c
C-o} (@code{sgml-next-trouble-spot}) is the best way to use the built-in
parser for this.  To check the whole file go to the beginning of the
buffer and use @kbd{C-c C-o}.

Some of the markup errors not found are:

@itemize @bullet
@item
Errors in the SGML declaration.
@item
Errors in attribute specifications.
@item
Omitted start-tags for empty elements.

PSGML does not understand the SGML declaration, it accepts one in the
file but it is ignored.  If you have the SGML declaration in another
file you can make @file{sgmls} use it when you use the @kbd{C-c C-v}
(@code{sgml-validate}) command (@pxref{Validate}).

PSGML has some options in what features it uses and what markup it
creates.  You have to set these options to make PSGML's behavior
consistent with your SGML declaration and personal preferences.

@defopt sgml-omittag
Set this to @code{t} if the SGML declaration has @samp{OMITTAG YES} and
to @code{nil} otherwise.
@end defopt

@defopt sgml-shorttag
Set this to @code{t} if the SGML declaration has @samp{SHORTTAG YES} and

@defopt sgml-always-quote-attributes
If non-nil, quote all attribute values inserted after finishing edit
attributes.  If this variable is @code{nil} and @code{sgml-shorttag} is
non-@code{nil}, attribute values that consists of only name characters
will not be quoted.
@end defopt

@defopt sgml-minimize-attributes
Determines minimization of attributes inserted by edit-attributes.  If
non-nil, omit attribute name if the attribute value is from a token
group.  If @code{max}, omit attributes with default value.  Minimization
will only be done if they produce legal SGML (assuming
@code{sgml-omittag} and @code{sgml-shorttag} are set correctly).

@cindex DTD

@vindex sgml-default-doctype-name
PSGML needs to know about the DTD you are using for many of its commands.
If you do not have a @samp{DOCTYPE} declaration in your file, 
PSGML will try assume that there is one of the form

@example
<!DOCTYPE @var{name} SYSTEM>
@end example

where @var{name} is the value of @code{sgml-default-doctype-name}, if
the value is non-@code{nil}, else the GI of the first tag will be used.

@findex sgml-parse-prolog
@vindex sgml-auto-activate-dtd
PSGML will try to parse the document type declaration the first time
you do something that needs to parse the document or immediately if the
variable @code{sgml-auto-activate-dtd} is @code{t}.  You can also
initiate the parsing of the document type declaration with the command
@code{sgml-parse-prolog}.  Big DTDs take some time to parse.

When the DTD has been parsed or loaded the name of the document element
will be displayed in the mode line inside brackets.  If there was an
error parsing the DTD or there is no DTD, the mode line will display
@samp{[ANY]} (*** this is not really correct! a DTD will be established

@section Precompiled DTD Subsets

If parsing the DTD takes too long time you can arrange to have PSGML
cache an internal complied version of the DTD.  Caching can be done of
DTD fragments in favourable situations.  It is possible to have an
external DTD subset cached but still have an internal DTD subset as long
as the internal subset does not define parameter entities that affect
the parsing of the external subset (*** what is the exact conditions?,
probably you can't use the cached external subset if the internal subset
defines parameter entities that are also defined in the external subset
with another value).

@vindex sgml-ecat-files
@vindex sgml-local-ecat-files
To enable caching you have to create special catalog files, hear after
called ECAT files due to (temporary) lack of imagination.  These catalogs
have similar syntax to the entity catalogs and there are two variables
containing lists of catalogs to search: @code{sgml-ecat-files} and
@code{sgml-local-ecat-files}.  The ECAT files can contain the following
types of entries:

@table @samp
@item file @var{dtdfile} @var{entitydef} @var{cfile}
The @var{dtdfile} is the name of a file containing a DTD subset that
should be cached in @var{cfile}.  The @var{entitydef} is optional and if
given have the following syntax:
@example
[ @var{name1} @var{literal1} @var{name2} @var{literal2} @dots{} ]
@end example
Using @var{entitydef} will modify the DTD subset by defining the
parameter entity with name @var{name1} to be @var{literal1}, @dots{}.  The
cached version of the subset will be created with those entity
definitions, and when PSGML search for a matching cached subset will check
that the parameter entities in @var{entitydef} has been defined with
those values before trying to use @file{cfile}. 

@item public @var{pubid} @var{entitydef} @var{cfile}
Cache the DTD subset with public identifier @var{pubid} in file
@var{cfile}. 
@end table


@defopt sgml-recompile-out-of-date-cdtd
If non-@code{nil}, out of date compiled DTDs will be automatically
recompiled.  If the value is @code{ask}, PSGML will ask before
recompiling.  A @code{nil} value will cause PSGML to silently load an out
of date compiled DTD.  A DTD that refers to undefined external entities
is always out of date, thus in such case it can be useful to set this
variable to @code{nil}.
@end defopt


Previous versions of PSGML have had another way of speeding up DTD
parsing.  This code remains in this version of PSGML, but is not actively
maintained and may disappear in the future.

@findex sgml-save-dtd
@findex sgml-load-dtd
@vindex sgml-default-dtd-file
You can save the parsed DTD in a file using the command @kbd{M-x
sgml-save-dtd}.  Next time PSGML can load that file instead of parsing
the DTD.  For PSGML to find the saved DTD you must either save the DTD
using the default name or do a @kbd{M-x sgml-save-options} after saving
the DTD.  To directly use an already parsed and saved DTD, load the file
containing the saved DTD with the command @kbd{M-x sgml-load-dtd}.

@defopt sgml-default-dtd-file
This is the default file name for saved DTD.  This is set by
@code{sgml-mode} to the buffer file name less extension plus the
extension @code{.ced}, if that file exists.  Can be changed in the Local
variables section of the file.
@end defopt

@c true with system-path
@c either or by creating a saved DTD and setting
@c @code{sgml-default-dtd-file} to that file.  If
@c @code{sgml-default-dtd-file} contains a relative file name, the
@c directories in @code{sgml-system-path} will be searched for the file.

is a string, the name of the file containing the
document entity.

@item context-element
is a string, that is the name of an element type.
It can occur 0 or more times and is used to set up
exceptions and short reference map.  Good candidates
for these elements are the elements open when the
entity pointing to the current file is used. 

@item top-element
is a string that is the name of the element type
of the top level element in the current file.  The file
should contain one instance of this element, unless
the last (lisp) element of sgml-parent-document is a
list.  If it is a list, the top level of the file
should follow the content model of top-element. 

@item has-seen-element
is a string that is the name of an element type.  This
element is satisfied in the content model of top-element.

Every entry should be a list.  The first element of the entry is a string
used as the menu entry.  The second element is a string containing a
doctype declaration (this can be nil if no doctype).  The rest of the
list should be a list of variables and values.  For backward

@code{sgml-default-dtd-file}.  All variables are made buffer local and
are also added to the buffers local variables list.

When an entry is selected from the DTD menu, the doctype declaration will
be inserted, the variables will be set to the values in the entry and a
local variables list will be created in the buffer.

@section Inserting Markup

@c erik says "inserts" ??
The commands that insert start-tags works only if the document has an
associated DTD.

Keyboard commands for inserting:

@table @kbd
@kindex C-c <
@findex sgml-insert-tag
@item C-c <
Will ask, for the tag to insert, in the mini-buffer with completion on the 
tags that are valid at point (@code{sgml-insert-tag}).

If the option @code{sgml-balanced-tag-edit} is non-nil, inserting a
start-tag will also insert the corresponding end-tag.  If, in addition,
@code{sgml-auto-insert-required-elements} is non-nil, tags for elements
required between the inserted tags will also be inserted.

The list of valid tags, computed for a position in the buffer, will
contain:

@enumerate
@item
The end-tag for the current element, if it can be ended at the position
and @code{sgml-balanced-tag-edit} is nil.  Furthermore it will contain
end-tags for enclosing elements if the necessary omissible end-tag
declarations have been made in the DTD.

@item
The start-tags of all elements that could occur after point.  If
@code{sgml-omittag-transparent} is nil, the above will be limited to the
elements that can occur within the current element.
@end enumerate


@kindex C-c C-e
@findex sgml-insert-element
@vindex sgml-insert-end-tag-on-new-line
@item C-c C-e
Insert start and end-tags for an element
(@code{sgml-insert-element}).  The name of the element is read
from the mini-buffer with completion on valid elements.  If
@code{sgml-insert-end-tag-on-new-line} is non-nil or the
element has element content, the end-tag will be inserted on a
new line after the start-tag.

@vindex sgml-omittag-transparent
If @code{sgml-omittag-transparent} is nil, the list of valid elements
will only contain the elements that can be in the content of the current
element.

@vindex sgml-auto-insert-required-elements
@vindex sgml-insert-missing-element-comment
Required elements in the content will be automatically inserted if the
option @code{sgml-auto-insert-required-elements} is non-nil. 
When the content model demands an element but there is more
than one to choose from, a comment can be inserted with the
available choices if the option
@code{sgml-insert-missing-element-comment} is non-nil.

@kindex C-c C-r
@findex sgml-tag-region
@item C-c C-r
Makes the region into a new element (@code{sgml-tag-region}).  Reads
element name from mini-buffer with completion as for @kbd{C-c C-e}.

@kindex C-c /
@findex sgml-insert-end-tag
@item C-c /
Inserts an end-tag for the current element (@code{sgml-insert-end-tag}).

@kindex C-c RET
@findex sgml-split-element
@item C-c RET
Split the current element at point.  If repeated, the containing element
will be split before the beginning of then current element.

Typical use is to start a new paragraph element when inside a paragraph.

@kindex C-c +
@findex sgml-insert-attribute
@item C-c +
Read attribute name and value from mini-buffer and insert attribute
specification (@code{sgml-insert-attribute}).  If point is immediately
after a start-tag, this command operates on that start-tag.  Otherwise
the command will operate on the element after point.

The attribute name will be read with completion.  If the attribute has a
token list as declared value the attribute value will also be read with
completion.  The prompt for attribute value will typically look like:

@example
Value for @var{attribute} (@var{type} Default: @var{current value}):
@end example

@kindex C-c C-u C-m
@findex sgml-custom-markup
@item C-c C-u C-m
Give keyboard access to the customized part of the Markup menu.
Emacs will prompt for the markup to insert using the menu line as
selector. (See @var{sgml-custom-markup} below.)

@end table

Menu bar:

@table @samp
@item Markup
Selecting from this menu will insert markup.  The menu contains
sub menus with tags and with entities, some other markup and a user
defined section.

Sub menus:

@item Insert element
Pops up a menu of valid elements and insert start and end-tags for
the selected element.  Selections from the menu works like the @kbd{C-c
C-e} command.

@item Insert start-tag
Pops up a menu of valid start-tags and insert the selected tag.  The
menu has the same start-tags as the completion list for @kbd{C-c <}.

@item Insert end-tag
Pops up a menu of valid end-tags and insert the selected tag. 

@item Tag region
Pops up a menu of valid elements and tag the region with the
selection.  Selections from the menu works like the @kbd{C-c C-r}
command.

@item Insert entity
Menu of all general entities defined in the DTD.

@item Insert attribute
Pops up a menu with all the attributes of an element.  The element is
either the one which start-tag is immediately before point or the
element after point.  Selecting from this menu edits the attribute
specification list for the element.

The menu has a sub menu for every attribute which declared value is a
token list.  The rest of the attributes are collected in one sub menu.
For the token list attributes, selecting a value will insert that
attribute-value pair.  Selecting some other attribute reads the
attribute-value from the mini-buffer and inserts the attribute value
pair.
@end table

@kindex S-@key{mouse-1}
A menu is also available directly with a mouse button click in the
buffer.  In GNU Emacs it is the first mouse button combined with shift
(@kbd{S-@key{mouse-1}}).  In XEmacs it is bound to the third mouse
button.  The mouse button click will pop-up a menu of valid tags or a
menu of attributes if the point is in a start-tag.  The attributes menu
works as the ``Insert attribute'' menu from the menu-bar.  The tags list
is the list of valid tags described above for command @kbd{C-c <}.
Selection from the tags menu works like the @kbd{C-c <} command, with
the following exception:

You can tag a region, with start and end-tag.  There are two ways to
indicate the region to mark:

@enumerate
@item
Use the normal mouse commands to mark region.  

For this to work you must either use @dfn{transient mark mode}
(@pxref{Transient Mark, , Transient Mark Mode, emacs, The Emacs
Editor}) or set the option @code{sgml-tag-region-if-active} to non-nil
(don't set this unless you are sure that you want it).

@item
Alternatively make a secondary selection, this is done by holding down
the meta key and using the mouse buttons.  
@xref{Secondary selection, , , emacs, The Emacs Editor}.
Some window managers intercept these events, which makes it hard use the
secondary selection in Emacs.
@end enumerate

@defopt sgml-balanced-tag-edit
If non-nil, inserting a start-tag will also insert the corresponding
end-tag.
@end defopt

@defopt sgml-auto-insert-required-elements
If non-nil, automatically inserts required elements in the content
of an inserted element.
@end defopt

@defopt sgml-omittag-transparent
If non-nil, will show legal tags inside elements with omissible start-tags
and legal tags beyond omissible end-tags.
@end defopt

@defopt sgml-tag-region-if-active
If non-nil, the @samp{Insert tags} menu will tag a region if the region
is considered active by emacs.  If nil, region must be active and
@code{transient-mark-mode} must be on for the region to be tagged.
@end defopt

@defopt sgml-custom-markup
Menu entries to be added to the Markup menu.  The value should be a list
of lists of two strings.  The first string is the menu line and the
second string is the text inserted when the menu item is selected.  The
second string can contain a @samp{\r} where the cursor should be left.
Also, if a selection is made according to the same rules as for the
@kbd{S-mouse-1} menu, the selection is replaced with the second string
and @samp{\r} is replaced with the selection.

Example:

@example
  (("Version1" "<![%Version1[\r]]>")
   ("New page"  "<?NewPage>"))
@end example
@end defopt


@defopt sgml-insert-missing-element-comment
If non-nil, and sgml-auto-insert-required-elements also true,
@code{sgml-insert-element} will insert a comment if there is an
element required but there is more than one to choose from.
@end defopt

@defopt sgml-insert-end-tag-on-new-line
If non-nil, @code{sgml-insert-element} will put the end-tag on
a new line after the start-tag.  Useful on slow terminals if you
find the end-tag after the cursor irritating.

You can make the mode-line display the name of the current open element
by setting the @code{sgml-live-element-indicator} variable.  Setting
this will make all commands slower due to the work needed to keep the

@section Editing attributes

@findex sgml-edit-attributes
@kindex C-c C-a
If you want to change the attributes of a start-tag you can simply edit
them directly in the buffer.  Or you can place the cursor at or after
the start-tag and use the @code{sgml-edit-attributes} command, available
from the @samp{SGML}-menu or on @kbd{C-c C-a}.  This will create a new
Emacs window with all possible attributes listed in the form

@example
@var{attribute name} = @var{current value}.
@end example

The @var{current value} may be shown as @samp{#DEFAULT} if the attribute
has not been given a value in the start-tag.  The list also contains the
attributes declaration as a comment.  Note also that the @var{current
value} is show without eventual quotes.

@kindex C-c C-d
@kindex @key{TAB}
It is now possible to edit the attribute values.  You can move to the
next attribute with @kbd{@key{TAB}}.  If you want to let an attribute
have its default value use @kbd{C-c C-d}, this will insert a
@samp{#DEFAULT} in the value field.

If Emacs is running in an X window, the @samp{#DEFAULT} will be
underlined to distinguish it from normal values.

@kindex C-c C-c
Finish the editing with @kbd{C-c C-c}; this will replace the attribute
values in the main buffer with those edited.  Note that values will be
quoted as needed.

If you want to abort the editing, you can remove the window with
@kbd{C-x 0} or if you want it neat, kill the buffer and remove the
window.

Some other keys are:
@table @kbd
@kindex C-a
@findex sgml-edit-attrib-field-start

@section Highlighting markup


PSGML can highlight the markup giving the markup a different @dfn{face}
(@pxref{Faces, , Using Multiple Typefaces, emacs, The Emacs Editor}).
The highlighting will only be done if the variable @code{sgml-set-face}
is non-@code{nil}.  The default settings make tags bold and comments
italic, but this can be modified with the variable
@code{sgml-markup-faces}.  When highlighting is on PSGML will parse after
every command until the whole buffer has been parsed or user event
occurs. 

@findex sgml-clear-faces
To remove the highlighting type @kbd{M-x sgml-clear-faces}.

@defopt sgml-set-face
If non-nil, psgml will set the face of parsed markup.
@end defopt

@defopt sgml-markup-faces
A list of markup to face mappings.
Each element looks like @code{(@var{markup-type} . @var{face})}.
Possible values for @var{markup-type} is:

@table @code
@item comment
comment declaration
@item doctype
doctype declaration
@item end-tag
end-tag 
@item ignored
ignored marked section
@item ms-start
marked section end, if not ignored
@item ms-end
marked section start, if not ignored 
@item pi

@end table
@end defopt

acceptable in the current element and defined with @code{O O ANY}
@end defopt

@defopt sgml-range-indicator-max-length
Maximum number of characters used from the first and last entry
of a sub-menu to indicate the range of that menu.

If you encounter something that you think is a bug, please report
it.  Try to include a clear description of the undesired behaviour.
A test case that exhibits the bug, would also be useful.

You can report a bug with the command @kbd{M-x sgml-submit-bug-report}.

When PSGML needs contextual information it parses the document up to
the point.  During the parsing, it builds a parse tree.  The parse
tree is used to initialize the next parse, to avoid having to parse
things already parsed.  Changes to the buffer is supposed to prune
the tree of all outdated information.  But if you get strange
complaints from the parser, try and back up a bit and use @kbd{C-c
C-o} (@code{sgml-next-trouble-spot}).
