* Remove DOCS/xmlwm42012-07-281-626/+0
| | | | | | This contained _some_ documentation, but it was all old, crappy, barely maintained. Even if it was maintained, uau hasn't merged back changes for years.
* DOCS/xml/en: remove various outdated documentationUoti Urpala2011-02-151-627/+20
| | | | | | | | | | The XML documentation was badly outdated, with various obsolete, useless and and sometimes actively harmful advice. Delete a lot of the obsolete stuff, without spending much effort to replace it for now. In the FAQ section I removed some questions completely; in other cases I only removed the answer if I thought the entry might be worth keeping but the answer would need to be updated.

It is getting outdated and outside the scope of MPlayer documentation. git-svn-id: svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk@31816 b3059339-0415-0410-9bf9-f77b7e298cf2 Remove pointless and non-informative SDL section from video output chapter. git-svn-id: svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk@31817 b3059339-0415-0410-9bf9-f77b7e298cf2 Drop one level of pointless subsectioning. git-svn-id: svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk@31818 b3059339-0415-0410-9bf9-f77b7e298cf2 Split TV chapter in two.

* | Remove the internal GUIAnton Khirnov2009-07-071-5/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | The GUI is badly designed and too closely coupled to the internal details of other code. The GUI code is in bad shape and unmaintained for years. There is no indication that anyone would maintain it in the future either. Even if someone did volunteer to implement a better integrated GUI having the current code in the tree probably wouldn't help much. So get rid of it.
