Maybe you should make this "standard directory" ;-)

I have installed just a few Djgpp programs (using Dos, Rhide, C/ C++ and Fortran,
maybe pascal) and documents like:


Directory of C:\DJGPP\DOC
GPC          <DIR>
RHIDE        <DIR>


Directory of C:\DJGPP\GNU
BASH-2   04  <DIR>
BINUTL-2 951 <DIR>
DOC          <DIR>
EMACS        <DIR>
FILUTIL3 16  <DIR>
GCC-2    952 <DIR>
GREP-2   4   <DIR>
GZIP-1   24A <DIR>
INDENT-2 2-5 <DIR>
MAKE-3   791 <DIR>
P2C-120      <DIR>
SED-3    02  <DIR>
SH-UTIL1 12  <DIR>
TAR-1    12A <DIR>
TEXINFO4 0   <DIR>


Directory of C:\DJGPP\GNU\DOC
GPC          <DIR>
- Is there Anyone who uses gpc in Dos? My installation don't works yet :-(


Directory of C:\DJGPP\GNUDOCS
BASH-2   04  <DIR>
FILUTIL3 16  <DIR>
GCC-2    952 <DIR>
- Why g77 / f77 documentation is here?
GREP-2   4   <DIR>
GZIP-1   24A <DIR>
INDENT-2 2-5 <DIR>
SED-3    02  <DIR>
SH-UTIL1 12  <DIR>
TAR-1    12A <DIR>


- and there are too documentation directories like:

Directory of C:\DJGPP\FAQ


Directory of C:\DJGPP\INFO
- Please, try to do this info program more user friendly and a direct port to
Rhide (if possible).


Directory of C:\DJGPP\MAN
CAT1         <DIR>
CAT5         <DIR>
CAT6         <DIR>
MAN1         <DIR>


and many programs with own /doc/- subdirectories.

Is there any engineer or architect or professor (or doctor ;-) online?

What is the right subdirectory to standard documentation directory in the future?



P.S. Is it possible to make with Gnu utilities from a .html file a readable
.txt file and vice versa?

With Best Regards
