Hi,

Marjolein has recently submitted a bunch of changes to the documentation,
fixing all sorts of minor problems.

However, she points out that the current attrs.html file is so big (155K)
that searching for attributes on htdig.org won't return the excerpt.
(Actually it  also shows a bug that I need to hunt down--it gives the size
as max_doc_size and not the real document size.)

I've been wondering about splitting the file into logical groups. This
would let us break attrs.html into smaller, more comprehensible chunks. In
addition, it would enable examples using multiple attributes as people
might use in their config files.

Here's some suggested breakdowns:
* External Parsers -> Should be separate doc anyway.
* Ranking Factors -> Make more sense in one doc, can give examples of multiple
                rankings on a site changing the output.
* Server Control -> max_hopcount, server_max_docs, limit_urls_to
* Search Formatting -> Templates, Graphics, Result Sorting
* Fuzzy Control -> search_algorithms, prefix_match_char
* Filenames -> common_dir, database_dir

This would probably help people figure out "How do I make my own
templates?" and "How can I turn on fuzzy matching?" easily.

Any thoughts? What breakdowns am I missing? What attributes have I forgotten?
