I'm having some trouble with building Phobos documentation 
locally on Win32.

I've been referring to this guide: 
http://wiki.dlang.org/Building_DMD#Building_the_Docs

I don't want to pull it from github and I don't really need the 
tools building either.

My make command is: make -f win32.mak DMD=..\dmd\src\dmd\src html

I keep getting error: don't know how to make 
'../dlang.org/std.ddoc'

you need the tools, the docs are generated from the source with ddoc
which is part of dmd.

maybe the slash need to be backslashed, because of windows

if you find a fix please add that to the wiki
