It would be nice in the building of help for packages if there were some

mechanism to provide a few paragraphs of general description for the
package. (If this is already there I've missed it.) In the html help it
would be possible to do this by looking for some special file (e.g.
"General_Description") in the man directory and putting a link to that
at the top of 00Index.html, but I don't now if this approach would work
with other help formats.
