Hi Xeubin,
This looks great. I like the look and feel. It is interesting to think of
ways this could be extended. E.g. I guess the links to references could be
made active so that clicking on a reference (with the correct doi tag) would
load up the paper. There are some neat things one could imagine as well,
such as moving images etc. That is for the future though.
All in all though it looks great. One question I have though concerns how
much work is involved to create this. I guess you are doing it manually at
the moment. I wonder if there would be some way to write a script to perhaps
pass the troff script that the amber manual is written in. This could
automate a good chunk of the work. Off hand though I don't know how easy or
hard this might be to do.
All the best
Ross

Dear dac:
Thanks for your quick response. It's my pleasure to make contribution back
to amber community.
I test the link and find that this method is not very convenient for end
user to install the addon package. Could you please insert the code snippet
listed in attachment file. So it may give better user expericence.
BTW, I'm starting to port amber9 manual in my spare time.
best regards
qxb

I have added this to the Amber web site (look under "Amber 8 Manual")
Thanks for providing this!
