Anyone here done this?  What system do people use?

The all-manual-way would of course be easiest, but it's not very convenient for other purposes: different searches, hooks for Codex, etc.

So the choice should be computer-based.  I personally would like an application which could be used on many different platforms.  For example these days I use only Unix-systems both at home and work, but might use something completely different in a few years).  The ideal solution (for me at least) would be to use Perl (maybe with some database) and have some nice ASCII output formats, including HTML.  Err, sorry for that technical comment; I *am* a computer nerd.
