I'm not sure I understand the question ? Are you referring to the
makefile.fpc in the docs dir ?
Yes, I downloaded all fpcdocs from SubVersion. It contains *.tex,
*.xml, etc. One of those files in the root directory was Makefile.fpc
and referred to makeskel and fpdoc. My knowledge of Makefiles are
very limited. I will try and get my docs generated with simple bash
scripts first, then work though that Makefile in fpcdocs and see if I
can make any sense of it. :-)
Makeskel accepts an output parameter. Make sure it is not equal to
the input file...
So you only generate the initial *.xml files once. After that you
always run makeskel in "update" mode with different filenames for
output.

No, but it could be done.
Okay, this makes me feel a little better. :-) I will start my scripts
off manually and over time, see what processes I could automate. It
sounds the easiest to implement.
