(Originally in another thread. I gave it its own thread to make finding it
and building upon it easier. Thanks go to Jacob Sparre Anderseon for
tracking these.)
These are the headers. All are required unless otherwise specified.
None may repeat unless otherwise specified.
Subject: [the question]
Content-Language: [ISO 639 language code]
Topic-Level: [integer, 0 is beginner/easy/simple -- optional]
Revision: [author, ISO date -- may repeat]
Location: [comma-separated list of Lugnet relative
URI's -- optional]
Translated-From: [ISO 639 language code -- optional]
Translator: [translator, ISO date -- optional -- may repeat]
Originator: [originator, ISO date -- optional]
Comment: [will be ignored -- optional -- may repeat]
Include: [relative (Unix) file name for another
FAQ entry - only header entries that
not already occur will be included -- optional
-- may repeat]
Reference: [URL to the source of the answer -- optional
-- may repeat]
The body of the FAQ item follows the headers, after a single blank line and
to the end of the file.
An example -- if quasi-XML to distinguish the file name -- follows.
<FILE NAME="/faq/lugnet/market/auction/awareness/1.en.faq">
Subject: You mean I can get money for my old LEGO®?
Location: /market/auction/,/market/,/

Topic-Level: 0

Comment: Did I spell "discombobulate" correctly?
Reference: <A HREF="http://www.lugnet.com/fibblesnork/lego/guide/auction/">The r.t.l. Auction and Shipping FAQ</A>
<P>Yes, absolutely -- anything that says LEGO® on it.</P>
<P>[quote snipped]</P>
<P>Sell your old LEGO® and you will be rewarded. But don't sell</P>
it to the first bloke who offers you $10 for it -- seek out the people
who seek what you have, and both of you are winners.
<P>A list of items Jeremy inserted for demonstration:</P>
<UL>
<LI>Item one.
<LI>Item two.
<LI>Item five. (Three, sir!) Three.
</UL>

Cheers,

| (Originally in another thread. I gave it its own thread to make finding it and building upon it easier.) Here's a working sketch of the FAQ data format; in quasi-XML, to separate the files. <FILE NAME="file: /faq/lugnet/market/a...1.en.faq"> Refer: (...) (26 years ago, 23-Apr-99, to lugnet.faq)
