        You misunderstand me. /usr/lib/sgml/dtd/ contains just the
 DTD's. And I *do* have 61 DTD's on my machine, at this moment,
 and these are just the older ones.

        I have a separate directory for dtds, and another for
 entities, and another for stylesheets --

        Wait a year. Or two. 

        I still stand behind my view that expecting just 30 DTD's on a
 machine is an unrealistic limitation.

        Niether.

        The best is to have a directory for all the dtd's, antoher for
 all the stylesheets, and so on.

        Would I like to see /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/etc rather than
 /usr/local/emacs/{bin,etc}? Yes. For much the same reasons.

        I think having separate directories for DTD's, and another one
 for stylesheets, results in two directories, and can be more easily
 scanned.
