Addresses #16545. Allows for user defined environment variables that hold paths to wordlists. This is to allow for easy access to wordlists for users and scripts, (in other distributions a convenient wordlist is typically found in /usr/share/dict/words or similar). The default wordlist is the one found in scowl, for no other reason than that's the one that was mentioned in the linked issue. It is possible to specify multiple environment variables as well. This is for users who need multiple wordlists (such as multilingual users).
This directory is temporarily needed while we transition the manual to CommonMark. It stores the output of the ../md-to-db.sh script that converts CommonMark files back to DocBook.
We are choosing to convert the Markdown to DocBook at authoring time instead of manual building time, because we do not want the pandoc toolchain to become part of the NixOS closure.
Do not edit the DocBook files inside this directory or its subdirectories. Instead, edit the corresponding .md file in the normal manual directories, and run ../md-to-db.sh to update the file here.
