Yep, the docs are all over the place.

If you build from source you can install info files and html files that I think are mostly upto date. There is also a DVI option but I don't know what that is and it doesn't work here on my box.

There are man pages installed also but the documentation is.. all over the place.

I put up a zip in the root of my webserver that contains fidoconfig.html, hpt.html and htick.html. That's the most complete and all in one place documentation that I know of. It's for the current husky 1.9.
