this discussion makes me think at an other way to improve doc.
do you know of any utility that could detecte automatically _all_ the
doc available for an application?
some sort of "locate_doc"
I mean I use mostly man pages or google. but I have no way to know if
there is an info file, HOWTO's, /usr/share/doc... and I can miss some
important thing.
browsing all by hand is quite tedious.
I would like to type "locate_doc ls" and have a list of all the relevant
doc.
if LDP was leading this, we could propose some way of indexing non
standard doc.
an utility can find man or info page, /usr/share/doc README or such
pretty usual thing but not html courses, but there could be a
registration form (as fresmeat) at ldp or any html tag, LDP recommended,
to easy web index.
