How do I build the docs tree from within emacs?
If, with /usr/doc/en_US.ISO_8859-1/books/faq/book.sgml (or another doc
sgml file) open in emacs, select ``Compile...'' from the Edit menu,
change the default ``make -k'' in the minibuffer to ``make'', I get
this in the *compilation* window:
cd /usr/doc/en_US.ISO_8859-1/books/faq/
make
make: no target to make.
Compilation exited abnormally with code 2 at Thu Dec 23 18:48:02
Thinking that emacs may be using it's own ``make'' (gmake?) instead, I
tried using the full path ``/usr/bin/make'', but got the same results.
What is the cause, and how do I fix it?
