Home DITASearch PluginThe com.taylortext.ditasearch plugin for the DITA Open Toolkit generates a help index and search box in your HTML5 output. Topography, Muffins, and ChunkingBefore I start a section hike, and sometimes just because I have the itch even when no hike is planned, I look at the topo maps for one section or another where I want to go. It's not just for fun — although it is fun — it's to break down a hike into manageable chunks of terrain that I can walk each day. HikingI first started really to enjoy hiking and backpacking when I lived in Denver after college. Currently, I'm chipping away at the Appalachian Trail one section hike at a time.About MeI'm a husband, father, technical writer, Appalachian Trail section hiker, son, brother, friend, and occasionally gun-toting liberal who likes serial commas, collard greens, and Diana Krall. I'm passionate about my family, good UI design, and DITA. My opinions are my own, but I try to base them in reality.
