It sounds as if you are trying to get part or all of the DocBook toolchain running under Windows. While I won't say this is futile, it will definitely exercise the edges of your sanity.
No it won't. Its easy. I can do it, so it must be. I've just had to install jdk 1.4..... something on Fedora core 1 (how to upgrade???) Now that is hard!
Anyone like to document how slocate and locate work please?
Instead, have you considered connecting from your Windows OS via PuTTY (http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/) to a Fedora Core server with the Authoring and Publishing package group installed (i.e., docbook-*, tetex, xmlto, etc.)?
Now that is hard :-) I do it for a wiki server I have at work.
You can edit using 'emacs -nw',
Oh dear. Karsten, that is *really* hard, when emacs runs on windows so well.
