.. rolelist:: bug
   :levelsup: 1

* Fixed :bug:`523`: typos in the documentation
* Added support for python 2.6, this fixes the :bug:`140`

includesh

Includesh (or include shell) extends the basic functionality of include directive: instead of just including the contents of the file into document, the includesh transforms the shell comments into documents and commands into literal blocks:

This section lists down the installation step from the setup.sh:

.. includesh:: setup.sh

regxlist

Similar to rolelist directive. The main difference is the capability to create list based on regular expression rule.

xmltable

Similar functionality to csv-table - one of the docutils directives: read data from XML/HTML file and convert it to RST-table based on given query and iterator. Requires BeautifulSoup -module.

Installation

The easiest way to install the package is to use easy_install:

easy_install -U rusty

Alternative method is to download the package manually, extract it and install it using traditional methods:

sudo python setup.py install

Documentation

Documentation provides further information and examples how to use the module. There exists two resources:
