I emerge with the doc USE flag and generally have a bunch of stuff in

it's a annoyingly laborious to wade through unindexed directgories and get a
browser pointing to the right thing. So I wrote a little Perl script to
create a top-level " index.html", organized by package and with a bit of
rudimentary pruning. I bookmarked it in Firefox, and can get to things a
lot faster now. I like the result, and will continue to tweak it here and
there.
Did I just reinvent a wheel? If not, is there any point it trying to make
this part of gentoo? If so, how would one do that?
Current script attached.

debian have a similar and much nicer tool called dwww which merges
all html-doc, htmlized infopages, and htmlized manpages into one
uniform system. I think gentoo being better should have an equivelant.
But as of yet, no such equivelant exists, which I think is sad, as
in my experience, the documentation available to gentoo as a whole is
/much/ superior to that on competing distros I have encounted.
