Documentation (manual): language style, chapters

[kraigus]

I've been submitting a few documentation patches, and have two questions about the LaTeX manual.

The first is the style is somewhat mixed; in some places, British spelling (sympathise vs sympathize sort of thing) is used, and in others American (honor vs honour) is used.  I personally don't care which is used, but it ought to be consistent, so we should pick one and stick with it.

The other is that the chapter breakouts are maddening, with multiple chapters per file.  I'd like to see the whole thing either merged into one big document, or (preferably) each chapter in its own file.  Any preferences?

We're going with British English as a rule. Not sure about the chapters, but one chapter per file sounds good to me.

Good, that's what I started doing. 

I'll submit what I have for now, and go back and break up the chapters into files later.
