Sure, we could get Devhelp to look in gtk-doc/html too if that's the
thing. The correct way to do it now though would be to install the
.devhelp in $(datadir)/devhelp/specs and in the .devhelp page set
baseurl to $(datadir)/gtk-doc/html/gtk+ or wherever it's installed.

What happened to the discussions about using ScrollKeeper for
maintaining a list of all documents installed on the system? I can
easily change Devhelp to get the information from there instead of
looking in some directory.

I'm currently working on the book handling in Devhelp2, so inputs are
welcome :)

Another thing I was thinking about is that glib/gtk+/.../ links
internally by using:

<a href="../glib/foo.html">

This way Gtk1 and Gtk2 documents are not paralell installable. It would
be nice if the links could instead be:

<a href="../glib-2.0/foo.html"> 

but I don't know if this is doable?
