* Add some keywords for the concept index. * Add some keywords for the keystroke index. * Mark invalid or unclear documentation with TODO. Is there a better proposal how to do this? * Fix copy+paste error in ColdFire section (options were copied from ARM). * Fix documentation for Wine. * Add placeholders for missing system emulations. * Add placeholders for missing user emulation commands. * Add an appendix with license (to be discussed). * Add an appendix for every type of index which is supported by texinfo. Currently, not all are used, but this might change in the future.
