This sentence was not finished. I am not really satisfied
with the graphics, I'll try to find some people with better
graphics skills.

This is not a convention, it is just often used this way.
A <seealso> kind of tag would be great. Unfortunately
there is a seealso tag in DocBook, but it is not intended
to be used this way... It seems to me, that it just complicates
things...

These questions need to be addressed in the manual, and not
part of the CHM development. These informations should be
there in all formats and languages. If somebody has the
time to contribute and collect such indexes, it would be
great :)) There is also a need for a full alphabetical list
of functions for some time, but noone had the time to
make a program to generate it...
