whereas "doc" could mean anything from MD to word :-)

true i haven't tried it. that's why i'm asking.
i'm currently travelling and would rather not have to download PdX.

so does it do anything special about the keyword "manual"? or will it
directly show all the libdir-directories in the help-browser, so a
package could ship with "docs" and "exemples" and even "beispiele" and
still be browseable from within the help-browser?

this makes most sense to me, as it is surely most robust against the odd
developer... (i'd prefer a system that allows for oddities and still
provides a somewhat uniform user experience, rather than
imposing/enforcing so called "standards")
