Hello,

It would be tremendously useful to have makeinfo --html to generate
.devhelp file. That way GNU developer documentation (e.g.
gcc/automake/autoconf) could be searched and viewed using GNOME Devhelp and
thus have one more way to be viewed.

In the past texi2html output was scanned and processed to generate a
.devhelp file.

All that .devhelp file has is essentially indexes and metadata:
* document info
* Table of Context
* Reference Index of Symbols

I quickly looked at tp/Texinfo/Convert but I am struggling to learn it as
to how to make HTML.pm generate one more file with xml index in the devhelp
format.

E.g. sphinx documentation toolchain has such a option already (to build
.devhelp file when building html documentation).

Dimitri.
