Wine Documentation README
Wine Man Page
The man page for the wine emulator is in this directory. It is installed
by 'make install'.
Wine Reference Manual
Texinfo source for preliminary comprehensive documentation is in
this directory. Use 'make info' in this directory to generate the GNU
info version, 'make dvi' to generate the DVI version (hit 'r' to
ignore errors), or 'make all' for both. It is no longer installed by
default.
Wine API documentation
Do a 'make manpages' in the Wine toplevel directory to generate the
API manpages from the Wine source, or 'make man' in any source
subdirectory to generate manpages from only that directory. The
manpages will be deposited in [documentation/man3w]. You will need
c2man, available as source from http://www.debian.org/ and other
places. Apply the patch included at the end of this file for improved
terse description formatting. The man pages are not installed
automatically.
Other READMEs
Other informational files are in this directory as well as scattered
through the source tree.

Writing Wine API Documentation
To improve the documentation of the Wine API, just add comments to the
existing source. For example,
