In en.xml etc, there are uses of %t, %n etc.

Anyone know where (if anywhere) these are explained?
I can't find anything in Bobs book.

TIA

%t = title
%s = subtitle (if available)
%n = number
%p = page number (if applicable)

Yes, thanks Tom. I guessed at %n, but couldn't be sure.

I'm guessing that's relative content?
current()/title etc.

"""Any %t mark in the attribute value is a placeholder for the
element's title, and %n is a placeholder for its number (if it is
numbered)."""
http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/CustomGentext.html


"""The %p is the placeholder for the generated page number. If you are
translating your documents to other languages, you may need to add
similar customizations to the gentext for those languages."""

Here's a potential list of the "etc", if someone else needs it (the
template names may be helpful documentation). This is from
1.71.1/common/gentext.xsl:

<xsl:when test="$candidate = 't'">
<xsl:apply-templates select="." mode="insert.title.markup">
--
<xsl:when test="$candidate = 's'">
<xsl:apply-templates select="." mode="insert.subtitle.markup">
--
<xsl:when test="$candidate = 'n'">
<xsl:apply-templates select="." mode="insert.label.markup">
--
<xsl:when test="$candidate = 'p'">
<xsl:apply-templates select="." mode="insert.pagenumber.markup">
--
<xsl:when test="$candidate = 'o'">

<xsl:apply-templates select="." mode="insert.olink.docname.markup">
--
[%d doesn't seem to be in use as of 1.71]
<xsl:when test="$candidate = 'd'">
<xsl:apply-templates select="." mode="insert.direction.markup">
--
[a literal %, finally]
<xsl:when test="$candidate = '%' ">
<xsl:text>%</xsl:text>
</xsl:when>
