I am confused. What does the 'all' mean?

I see now. 'gmake install' installs everything, including the man
pages, so no need to do 'gmake man'.

Do we want to split out gmake man and gmake html, or keep just gmake
install and remove mention of gmake man?

Can someone who understands how the INSTALL file and doc/Makefile are
used please make the changes. Thanks.
