Interbase 6.0 Language Reference in html/xml format

I did some experiments with pdftohtml and here are some results

http://firebirdsql.ro/images/LANGREF.html
http://firebirdsql.ro/images/LANGREF.xml

And here are the steps i have made to reach that point
http://mapopa.blogspot.com/2010/05/transforming-old-interbase-60-docs-from.html

So in theory in the future somewhere i can see a page with all the Language Reference on one single page maybe with interbase 6.0 text in another color (green) so it will represent that is not under a open source license

Wondering what changed on Earth in last, say, four weeks. I’m getting more than average (read: more than zero) emails, asking whether FirebirdClient works with InterBase. Similarly in mailing list.

  • We added ctype_user property that allows setting the encoding of data coming to client irrespective of the encoding in which this data is coming from database server.
  • New algorithms of BLOB fields converting provide for quick work with flowing data, optimization of interaction with ICU library.
