> #                         (or from CTAN)
> # unpack (no new subdirectory is created)
> # probably get newer texdoc-10x.dat file (don't now where from, just
> #                                         saw references)
> # cp -ivp textdoctk $PREFIX/bin
> # chown root:root $PREFIX/bin/texdoctk
> # mkdir $PREFIX/share/texmf/texdoctk  (must be main tex-tree)
> # cp -ivp texdoc-102.dat texdocrc.defaults
> # $prefix/share/texmf/texdoctk
> # chown root:root $PREFIX/share/texmf/texdoctk/*
> # Customization of data file is possible:
> #             cp texdoc-10x.dat texdoc-local.dat and adjust
> # texdocrc.defaults can be updated as well
> # Run texhash

   A pessimist is sure that this must be so.
