# 2.5 Building the Documentation

Add —enable-doc to the configure arguments to build the documentation together with all the other stuff. You will need several tools (LYX LyX, LATEX, LATEX2HTML, pdflatex, dvipdf, dvips and makeindex) to get the job done. Another possibility is to change to the doc directory and to type ”make” there. You're invited to make changes and additions to this manual (sdcc/doc/sdccman.lyx). Using LYX LyX `http://www.lyx.org` as editor is straightforward. Prebuilt documentation is available from `http://sdcc.sourceforge.net/snap.php`.
