Hi

Can I add a minor correction, you need to type:

./make

if you are in the BlenderManual directory.

And, I think the 'make' file in CVS is very specific to Bart's setup, as it
contains some commands to scp file to www.blender.org, so you probably need
to edit it for your own situation.

Also, if you use this script to generate html, it will create a directory
called 'html' which will contain the various .html files. But the images
didn't appear when viewed in a browser. To view the .png images correctly, I
had to add a link to the gfx directory. So while in the html directory:

ln -sf ../gfx/ gfx

HTH
