-Assorted Texinfo-related files.
+All the files here are maintained as part of the Texinfo distribution
+(in contrast to the contrib/ directory).
-texindex, texi2dvi, texi2pdf, pdftexi2dvi, and the XML stuff get installed.
-The other items here are for your amusement and/or hacking pleasure.
+These scripts actually get installed:
+ texindex texi2dvi texi2pdf pdftexi2dvi
+ (along with *.bat on Windows)
+ Also the XML stuff: texinfo.dtd texinfo.cat.
+
+These are examples of wrapping makeinfo invocation to achieve their
+various jobs:
+ detexinfo texi2html texi-elements-by-size
+ txicmdlist txicustomvars txixml2texi
+
+The srclist.txt file specifies common source files to keep in sync; see
+the srclist-update script in gnulib.
+
+Finally, the gendocs script and templates (which are not installed) are
+about creating all the usual output formats to be put on web pages.
