+
+Documentation for Grok.
+
+What is `grokdocs`?
+===================
+
+It is merely a wrapper around the sphinx documentation engine. Sphinx
+is also used to render current documentation of the Python programming
+language.
+
+Grokdocs generates HTML or LaTeX documents from the sources in the
+Grok doc/ directory.
+
+
+How can I run `grokdocs`?
+=========================
+
+`grokdocs` can be accessed by running 
+
+	bin/grokdocs2html 
+
+or
+	
+	bin/grokdocs2latex
+
+from the Grok root source directory.
+
+The results can be found by default in a newly created directory
+called `build` in the root of the Grok source directory.
+
+To generate PDF files, just change to <Grok-Root>/build/latex and run
+
+   make
+
+This should give you a tutorial, a reference and a grokdocs PDF file.
+
+You need LaTeX installed, to run pdflatex.
+
+
+What documents are handled by `grokdocs`?
+=========================================
+
+`grokdocs` takes only care for such documents, that have been agreed
+to be maintained in the Grok subversion repository. This means it
+cares for 
+
+  - the Tutorial,
+
+  - the Grok reference,
+
+  - the 'developer notes'
+
+and some minor documents.
+
+These documents should only be changed in the subversion
+repository. Any changes on the website will be overwritten by the
+repository version, once a new release of Grok is done.
+
+Any other documentation parts should be done on the grok.zope.org
+website.
