It's done!

This shows the online manual being installed in /usr/local/info.
jd> make install-man1
jd> /bin/sh ./mkinstalldirs /usr/local/man/man1

This shows the man page being installed in /usr/local/man.

"make.texinfo" is the manual in GNU's Texinfo format; this is the
original "source". It can be converted to many formats. The online
format is call "Info" and it can be read via Emacs' Info mode, or via
one of the standalone Info readers. You can find one in the GNU texinfo
package. There's also a "tkinfo" reader.
Or you can read the manual online in HTML, or get printable versions
(PostScript or DVI); see the README file.
