<heading>File Placement</heading>
+ <p>
+ This chapter describes the placement of TeX input files, so that
+ they can be found by programs. Files that are not TeX input
+ files must not be put in a TEXMF tree (put them into
+ <file>/usr/share/<var>package</var></file> instead). As an
+ exception, documentation files in plain text may be used inside
+ a <var>TEXMF</var> tree, e.g. to explain the purpose of an
+ otherwise empty directory.
