4.1 Documentation tree summary
==============================

An example skeleton of a TDS directory tree under `texmf/doc'.  This is
not to imply these are the only entries allowed, or that this structure
must be followed precisely for the entries listed.

   As mentioned, the `texmf/doc' tree may be organized by language, so
that all documentation in French, say, is in a `french' subdirectory.
In that case, the example structure here would be in a given language
directory.
