22.4.5 Understanding effects of the older Stylesheet setting

Prior versions of Mif2Go used a single setting to manage CSS file options:

[HtmlOptions]

; Stylesheet = None (default if no setting),

;  Init (default set by Setup, write .css if not existing),

;  Generate (overwrite .css),

;  Class (no link, no write), or

;  Use (link, no write).

;Stylesheet=None

Stylesheet is deprecated

The Stylesheet setting is deprecated, and is replaced by the [CSS] options described in §22.4.2 Specifying CSS options in a Mif2Go configuration file. However, Stylesheet is still supported for backward compatibility.

If a Stylesheet setting is present in your configuration file and the newer [CSS] file options are not present, defaults for the newer options are set according to the value of Stylesheet, as shown in Table 22-1. If both are present, the [CSS] options prevail.

Table 22-1 Default CSS file options when [HtmlOptions]Stylesheet is used
