This directory contains source for the project mandated "read the docs" .rst documentation. If the "tfm" tool is available, the Makefile will both build the doc from the source here and "install" it into the docs directory at the repo root. Then the generated .rst files must be checked into the repo and committed with changes to the source (maybe not the best practice). The command 'make all' should be all that is needed to build the rtd documentation. Follow that with 'make publish' to actually move the .rst files into the docs directory at the root; only the changed files are moved. Adding A New Man Page When a new manual page is added to the source (../man), it must be added to the list in the user's guide source in this directory. Rationale Documentation is just code, and by maintaining the documentation as source is is possible to generate various forms of output with a single make. While it is possible to convert X to Y, a true document composition language is far better at generating readable Postscript output with embedded figures as well as text and tables. CAUTION: The RST syntax is as bad as python when it comes to dealing with spaces. For example &bold( foo ) will insert spaces after the initial bold trigger, and before the trailing bold trigger which will throw the tox validation into a tizzy. Further, something like 'void *' and 'rmr_ ' does as well. If needed, use the defined escape macro to add an escape in such situations; it should only generate for RST and not impact other output formats.
