Is there a way to make it automatically update a single contents page with links to the documentation of all installed packages?

Seeing this today (I'm catching up on haskell-cafe!) made me want this too, so I rolled my own.
Thanks!

I've copied my little script below in case anyone else wants a lightweight solution. Mike #!/bin/bash # This script, when run in a directory containing subdirectories of # the form pkg-1.1.1/html with haddock documentation, builds a master # table of contents for all this documentation, including all the # system-installed libraries from SYSDOCPATH. SYSDOCPATH=/usr/share/doc/ghc6-doc/libraries args="" # Skip the 'ghc' package, which has a lot of packages we don't care about for dir in $(find $SYSDOCPATH -type d -path '*libraries/*' -and -not -name 'ghc'); do pushd $dir >/dev/null for thing in $(find . -name '*.haddock'); do args="$args -i $dir,$dir/$thing" done popd >/dev/null done for dir in $(find . -type d -name 'html'); do pushd $dir >/dev/null for thing in $(find . -name '*.haddock'); do args="$args -i $dir,$dir/$thing" done popd >/dev/null done haddock --gen-contents $args
