Re: broken online help system

Right, the latex manual has a different master file
because if it included all the sections of the helptool
version (like lapack, gsl...) it would be 3000 pages
instead of merely 700.

So, you must also add your entry in
lush-manual-latex.hlp, not just lush-manual.hlp
