For example: What stuff is optional/required/relevant for Placing support files into standard places (README, NEWS, .) make make install make dist make distclear And whatever else comes to mind. The current index provides two extremely useful views, macros and variables, but these are not associated with functionality. It's the same as saying read everything to get anything. For the non-discriminating reader it is a daunting task to read the entire manual to find some simple thing. The resources currently available are the topic headings in the TOC, index topics and the macro and variable tables. I wonder if these things can be leveraged to provide a more focused look. I'd be glad to help. art From debbugs-submit-bounces@debbugs.gnu.org Fri Dec 19 07:11:45 2014 Received: (at control) by debbugs.gnu.org; 19 Dec 2014 12:11:46 +0000 Received: from localhost ([127.0.0.1]:50876 helo=debbugs.gnu.org) by debbugs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.80) (envelope-from ) id 1Y1wPJ-0004uV-MD for submit@debbugs.gnu.org; Fri, 19 Dec 2014 07:11:45 -0500 Received: from mail-wi0-f172.google.com ([209.85.212.172]:52544) by debbugs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.80) (envelope-from ) id 1Y1wPI-0004uN-2b for control@debbugs.gnu.org; Fri, 19 Dec 2014 07:11:44 -0500 Received: by mail-wi0-f172.google.com with SMTP id n3so1698029wiv.5 for ; Fri, 19 Dec 2014 04:11:43 -0800 (PST) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=20120113; h=message-id:date:from:mime-version:to:subject:content-type :content-transfer-encoding; bh=VodIfNTvOxRcHqkE9+mJxcHEMQkJ8Tn0wq3e1BoZe0I=; b=MPpDNT5lqovzTwFxgGlt8C1ec6rfQk1cF+8U3dwwCFfD8kzLDb1x9i/04jMlbJQqT+ CZGnWVdgWEy/jefL83mM0rImvcz6GkaSRFw464qOTcfn1/gETxTD9jOJUndy7OZGPAYO g42nReu2R4WLokmEVEv4gDUSd73CV+bN9CQXDlZATD+h9A0YPSHuBVWoxuxgvBLQLZhS Gi7OZ5jjVIzwcj9+M7b6M1aKfeXHbLMYhcdFRdFnSs9PjE4XMxDIFWlWUwKoUZHHT58F o7SY/QyE+xz6ZtOoigi4/SNdcOEwXPlaVbR3stB/HV7g/gJF7w12tLJrDIfWxbDoEaYO 42qA== X-Received: by 10.194.24.103 with SMTP id t7mr14150569wjf.15.1418991103563; Fri, 19 Dec 2014 04:11:43 -0800 (PST) Received: from [192.168.0.101] (host159-94-dynamic.7-79-r.retail.telecomitalia.it.
