I wrote my manuals also in LaTeX, but not with "vi" or "vim", but with a
Wiki, CGI::KWiki. I wrote a python script kwiki2latex that does the
conversion for me. It can handle pictures, automatic TOC, half-automatic
Index, Tables, chapter-to-subsubsubchapters, areas that should be on the
wiki but not in the book and links inside the document.
That makes our whole embedded development team contribute to the
Documentation, which is quite nice.
I find this actually way nicer than doing LaTeX by hand or doing Docbook.
When I see the Asteriskdoc Docbook files with their extraordinarily long
lengths.
