<p>Hi Frank,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I created a small DITA OT plugin (please see attached) which
adds the same customization you have for Miramo to all
XHTML-based outputs, including CHM. You can look into it to see
how the plugin works.<br>
</p>
<p>DITA OT plugins are installed something like this:<br>

<p>Hi Radu,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Thank you for your reply. I am afraid I am not XSLT-savvy
enough to adapt sketched code and I have never created any
DITA-OT plugin. I would need the exact code and precise
instructions where to put that code in the CHM
transformation...</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I wonder whether the following solution I found for MiramoPDF
could be adapted to oXygen's CHM transformation? <br>

<p>Hi Frank,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>An Oxygen editor variable expands only once. You seem to
need some kind of macro which would expand every time you
publish.</p>
<p>So you seem to need more like a publishing customization.</p>
<p>For DITA XML maybe you can use the <data> element
with a certain name:</p>
<p> </p>
<blockquote type="cite"><data name="currentYear"/></blockquote>
and then create a DITA Open Toolkit XSLT-based customization
plugin which matches this element at publishing time and
replaces it with the current date. Are you familiar with XSLT?
Would you like to pursue this direction? If so maybe I can try
to sketch a small publishing plugin which would do this.<br>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Regards,</p>
<p>Radu</p>

<p>Hi list,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>How can I insert the current date into a dita file? I
would like to have oXygen automatically update the year of
a copyright notice. I know that I can define editor
variables. But how can I embed them in the dita code?</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>If this needs to be tied to the XSL that produces the
deliverable: I need this for CHM, which I generate with
oXygen. (I have already found a solution for MiramoPDF. )
And I'd need to know where exactly to add the code...
Thank you.<br>
