[oXygen-user] docbook variable substitution

[Andrew Harrison]

Hi,

Apologies if this is slightly off topic. I have a docbook question. Is  
there a way to define a variable in docbook and reference it in the  
text?

In latex I would do:

"\newcommand{\book}{Gone With the Wind}"

then in the text:

"I recently read \book."

which would render as

"I recently read Gone With the Wind."

I can't seem to find out if this is possible.

Thanks in advance.

Andrew
