Details

If you run the ent2dtd.pl script on a XUL file that has already been converted once, the <!DOCTYPE line is lost. Instead, it should leave that line there. When fixed, this allows you to periodically go into a resource directory and type: ent2dtd.pl *.xul and be garanteed that all the files have had their entities externalized. Otherwise, you have to go individually figure out which files need to be fixed, and run it manually on those files. Fantastic script though! Saved me a ton of time!
Status: NEW → ASSIGNED
This is a known problem. I'll look into it. BTW, the way I detect entities in XUL is simply run find with grep... It's more reliable than "ent2dtd.pl". Interesting point, though. Thanks for the feedback and helping us ;-)
Target Milestone: M10
I'll revisit this by M10.
Target Milestone: M10 → M11
It's not part of the build. Push away to M11. I'll revisit it when working on another similar script that auto check in DTDs.
Not a show blocker. Push to M12.
Non-stopper->M12.
Non blockers; push off to M14.

This script is rarely used now since most of the entities had been externalized. Mark it remind.

REMIND is deprecated. WONTFIX this if the script is on its way to destruction.
