Sounds like a good thing to me.  And well, I use LaTeX regularly but
guess the kind of TeX you want is Texinfo; or does the manual use
something else?  However, I've also used Texinfo before -- so that
shouldn't be hard to do.

Anyway, thanks for the offer -- maybe I'll come back to you with
questions on how to get my stuff into the right place, make it build or
all kind of that stuff. :)

That's really nice, thanks a lot for asking!  But all that is necessary
is Jordi's final evaluation giving me a "positive grade".  However, I'm
really encouraged if others find my work useful!

Cheers,
Daniel
