macros

Is there any way of defining macros (like tex macros o latex defines) in DocBook documents?

DocBook is very verbose, and macros would help a lot. I didn't find them in quickstart tutorials.

If so, could anyone provide a simple example or a link to?

Thanks

So, is it really based on DocBook? And if it is, is it available from some public repository? >>> More
