ddc30d84df A first rough cut at an abridged version of the handbook for use
on the installation floppy.

Also pulled the entity definitions for the various sections out
of handbook.sgml and put them in their own file since they are used
both by handbook.sgml (the full version) and boothelp.sgml (the
abridged version).

396c73dcff Start populating the handbook with useful cross reference targets.
All cross reference labels start with name of the file that contains
them.  A label for the top section level is simply the name of the
file (omitting the .sgml).  Other references within the file append a
colon and onother name.  For example, the label on the mailing list
section in the file eresources.sgml is eresources:mail.  This gives
each file its own cross reference namespace.
