Here is the code to the jargon browser, use it as you will, the only requirement is that you put in the code somehwere that some of the code was borrowed from me. If you find any bugs in it, I would like to know. If you actualy do use it, I would like to know.

Yet to be implented:

Note: I did not intend for this to be publicish code, and so it is a bit poorly documented.

Some slight changes have been made to the jargon file to preserve certain formating concerns. Because the program automaticlay converts > to ampre-gt, if you want a html directive in the file, you need to prepend both the > and the < with a backslash ('\'). The same problem occurs when it looks at cross-refrences (designated by '{cross-ref}'), if you don't want it to generate a link, you should preced the '{' and the '}' with a backslash ('\'). The program will ignore its formating on any line that starts with a hash ('#') in col 0. By placing a hash in col 0, it will call spew_char(char it) rather than print_char(char it). One example of this can be seen in the entry for ascii-art where the '/', '\', '{', and '}' may confuse the scanner/parser as to what should actualy go there.
