Hi Patrick,

Yesterday, Jean-Michel and I added a little bit of scripting that
generates the above *.tex files from *.templ (template) files.  The
result of this change is that, at a min, you need the following
directory structure:

  SOME_DIR/MITgcm
          /manual

in order to build the docs.  And you can create this by doing:

  cd SOME_DIR
  cvs co MITgcm manual

This is not a really big deal in terms of dependencies since the full
build of all of our docs (including the HTML version) requires the same
two directories plus two more.  The commands in that case are:

  cd SOME_DIR
  cvs co MITgcm manual mitgcm.org
  mkdir scratch
  cd mitgcm.org/devel/buildweb/
  make All

And you're right that we should have documented this change yesterday.
My apologies for forgetting to send an email!

Ed
