I'm almost done with the web page on the fpGUI website explaining how
to do it for class documentation (eg: FCL, RTL, LCL, fpGUI).

The other FPC documentation like FPC Language Reference, FPC
Programmers Guide, FPC Developers Guide are written in Latex. I gave
up (or refused) to supply a auto-converted INF version of those
because they just look crap. Michael has standards, and so do I
(documentation must look good). :) So I am manually translating the
FPC Language Reference to INF (if I ever get time to work on it -
though I am nearly complete). The Language Reference is the most
important out of the FPC docs I thought, so started with that first (I
don't actually have plans to do the others).
