Multi-Volume Documents

[Robert Lauriston]

When I did that some years ago, I just had all the .book and .fm files
in the same directory. Cross-PDF links worked fine so long as the PDFs
were in the same directory.

There used to be a bug that all the .fm files had to be open for the
cross-PDF links to work but I think that was fixed.
