Great!

I plan on looking at that at some point but it's not a priority.  My 
original docs included creating a new table of contents and doing the 
manipulation inside of HTML Help so automating it was not possible, but I 
changed it to use manual editing of the files.  They are all in an easy 
to use format so more of it could be scripted.  The HTML Help project file 
and table of contents would only change if new man pages or README files 
need to be added so it's not a big deal.

Other than the time to actually compile, probably 20 minutes.

I can't imagine that part being any more than 20 minutes either, once 
the scripts and 'project files' etc are created.  Andy?
