but you can tweak the ``PREFIX`` variable in ``Makefile`` to install
to another location.
+By default, ``make`` builds both a man page for ``be`` and the HTML
+Sphinx documentation (:doc:`doc`). You can customize the
+documentation targets by overriding_ the ``DOC`` variable. For
+example, to disable all documentation during a build/install, run::
+
+ $ make DOC= install
+
+Note that ``setup.py`` (called during ``make install``) will install
+the man page (``doc/man/be.1``) if it exists, so::
+
+ $ make
+ $ make DOC= install

+*will* build (first ``make``) install (second ``make``) the man page.
