Giorgos,

thanks for your reply.

OK - your instructions seem quite easy.  I have found fdp-primer in the
last hour or so, but I figured that was for people who actually wanted
to create documentation, not just keep up to date.

If I understand you correctly, I do not need to re-run cvsup (I did it
this morning), but simply need to get the docproj port installed before
doing make and make install in /usr/doc.

I'll follow your suggestion and see how it goes.

Thanks again!

Regards,
Patrick O'Reilly.
