Other documents shipped with Guile

Guile ships with many other documents, beyond the User and Programmer manuals. You can find them in miscellaneous subdirectories of `$srcdir/guile-docs' in the Guile distribution. Some of these are useful, others are hopelessly out of date.

I will just mention a few filenames you might want to find in that tree: `goonix-orig.texi', `guile-design.texi', `plugin.texi', `rx.texi', `threads-design.texi', ... These are all to be found in the directory `$srcdir/guile-docs/misc'.
