Hi Qian,

I do not know how relevant that is, but util.ht is pretty special and has a separate entry "util-ht" in src/doc/Makefile.in.

https://github.com/fricas/fricas/blob/master/src/doc/Makefile.in#L328

It will be generated before the compilation process comes src/doc for producing the documentation.

But it looks like it is a directly copy of src/doc/ht/util.ht,
not generated.

Instead of your change to the documentation I would like to have this somehow a little more precise. Maybe like this:

===========
# The intro.htex and util.ht files are not directly relevant for image
# generation, however, util.ht is used during generation of interpsys.
===========

Does "intro.htex" still exist? If so, where?

Unfortunately, I have not followed the move from $FRICAS to $spadroot, so I cannot say anything about your change to src/interp/htcheck.boot.

Can you remind me what the relation between the FRICAS variable and spadroot actually is? If FRICAS is set at the start of fricas will then
spadroot take this value or what is the actual logic?

Ralf

When function "initroot" is called, it will take the value of
environment variable "FRICAS" (if it exists) and assign to Lisp
variable |$spadroot|.
