I noticed recently that the HOL88 libraries almost universally
fail to conform to the section in the Author's Guide to Writing 
HOL Documentation that stipulates a standard directory organization
for the help files of a HOL library.  (See item 3 in section 8.1.)
Would anyone object if, in the next release, we actually imposed this
standard on the existing libraries?  It would make it much easier to
construct help file browsers that can know about libraries.

All objections by email to me, please.

Tom
