Hello.

The doc subdirectory (apart hopefully Developers) is a slight mess, with many 
many non working or obsolete things.

Currently, there following documentations are defined:
* spoiler book
* player book
* spell list
* handbook

The generation is broken for many things, so we should either fix or remove :)
Ideally, we should almost be able to generate the spoilers at 
http://crossfire.real-time.com/spoiler/index.html 
And probably some handbooks or guides. Maybe not everything, but probably 
things that depend on server settings/archetypes/artifacts.

I'd be partisan to fix, because (game) documentation is important.

Here are different things that can be generated automatically:
* standard item list (monsters, artifacts, alchemy formulae, ...)
* basically, anything that can be extracted, from server or maps (mapper could 
list items in the maps themselves if needed - of course, that would 
documentation would be for "standard" maps)


Here are things we can't generate automatically:
* advice
* all texts, except those parts of items
* document structure


Also, there is the question of formats. We have broken support for html 
and .tex / .ps.
IMO, either html or .pdf/.ps are fine.


What do you think?

Nicolas
