I'd like to request that the documentation sources be put up as a separate download from GPC's source tarball. This way, people who want to work on the docs (and, for any reason, can't/won't use CVS) don't have to download the whole GPC suite.
TIA.
I'd second that. If it were easy enough I'd tap away as I'm (re)learning things, I'd poke the odd thing in myself. I don't want to have to fiddle around with CVS, even though I'm supposed to be teaching myself subversion (a CVS replacement) I barely need it as a one-many operation. Put it another way, if I'm going to contrib. to the docs if going have to be absolutely trivial.

I've put an archive at http://www.gnu-pascal.de/beta/. I've tried to extract the relevant parts of GPC's Makefile (see comments at top), hope that's enough to be usable. (All the other files are identical to GPC's `p/doc' subdirectory.)
(BTW, where's this GPC CVS I keep hearing about? I haven't set up one. ;-)
