It took me a long time to notice that the main documentation files in
        teach, help, ref, and doc
directories are missing!

As a temporary fix I've made them available in a tar file that can be
fetched and installed. The process is documented as a temporary solution
in the 'updates' section of:

        https://www.cs.bham.ac.uk/research/projects/poplog/V16/AREADME.html

After installing the main package as described previously, fetch this
tar file:

        https://www.cs.bham.ac.uk/research/projects/poplog/V16/docs.tgz

and copy it to the directory containing the poplog_base directory.

Then do
    cd poplog_base/pop
    tar xfz ../../docs.tgz

That will install the missing

        teach help ref doc

directories.

After doing that run the command

        $usepop/pop/com/makeindexes

It will update indexes used by the search commands in the editor.

I guess I knew too much to notice the missing files at first!

I'll later tidy the AREADME file.html

With all the documentation and the packages directory included the
total size is about
        96 MB

Including a 7.4MB collection of saved images in $usepop/pop/lib/psv
(in my installation).

I wonder how that compares with space required by other Lisp, Prolog,
and ML installations on linux?
