Re: [docbook] external entities in docbook

For DocBook 4, the answer is yes. You can use the 
method described here to include the entity declarations in a DTD 
customization:

Subject: [docbook] external entities in 
  docbook

  

  

  
Hello 
  list,

  
 

  
at the moment we have a reference 
  to a file containing our entitiy definitions like 
  this:

  
<!ENTITY % myents SYSTEM 
  "Q:/docbook/Tourmalet_en/Variables/Variables.ent">

  
 

  
This is of course ugly. Is there a 
  different way of providing entities into any file without 
  this?

  
 

  
Thanks,
