I've been locally testing configuration for Company documentation (to add it to GNU ELPA) and noticed that an HTML version of the manual is automatically generated from the '.texi' file. The generated HTML file is linked under the label 'Manual' on the package page and served from the 'archive-devel/doc/company/' directory. I was pleased to see that automatic generation but there were two issues (namely, images and styles). The user manual for Company is shipped with the images; and it is currently impossible to configure the addition of them to the 'elpaa--doc-subdirectory'. My initial idea for fixing this issue was to add a property ':doc-asset', which could be configured to '(FROM . TO)' directories names, then used for moving images to the 'archive-devel/doc/company/' folder, as shown below: #+BEGIN_SRC diff diff --git a/elpa-admin.el b/elpa-admin.el index d94cc7fd73..23bb582ceb 100644 --- a/elpa-admin.el +++ b/elpa-admin.el @@ -1999,7 +1999,11 @@ directory; one of archive, archive-devel."

So, the suggested patch provides a way to do that. It introduces and uses two new properties: ':doc-html' and ':resources'. With it, for example, Company setup could be configured this way: #+BEGIN_SRC lisp ("company" :url "https://github.com/company-mode/company-mode.git" :shell-command "mkdir images; mv doc/images/small images/" :doc "doc/company.texi" :doc-html ignore :resources (("User Manual" . "https://company-mode.github.io/manual/index.html")) :auto-sync t) #+END_SRC I also attach a version with a bit different (IMO less robust/clear) approach. It introduces/uses one new property instead: ':doc-links'.
