Hi there,

 

In our documentation we use something like <installation folder> or <project folder> and put these into file paths, f. e.

 

<project folder>\pipe\sewer.s3db

 

If I surround this with <filepath> markup, oXygen changes the 1^st angle bracket of “<project folder>” to “&lt;project folder>” to save the structure.

 

In Author mode, you don’t realize this, only when trying to Search&Replace <installation folder> with <program folder> you don’t find all occurences and wonder why.

 

I see that this has to be changed by oXygen.

 

Is there some advice / best practice to deal with this kind of source text? At the moment, I can only think of putting this “variable” in a <varname> element inside <filepath> without writing the angle brackets and defining a CSS rule for /filepath/varname to surround it with brackets in the output.

 

Any other ideas?

 

TIA and Greetings from Germany,
