Instructions for 'manual_build.sh' usage in this branch

Usage:
------
./manual_build.sh [-p] [-r version ] manual
Mandatory
          Chose one model manual among NEMO SI3 TOP or all (if not provided compile "NEMO")
Optional
   -p     Produce manual with figures and disable draft watermark
   -r     Specify the release version number of the manual(s) instead of the branch name

The latex function \nlstlocal allows to load specific namelists from the component folder (e.g. doc/latex/TOP/namelists) rather than from the main one in doc/namelists (added in in doc/latex/global/highlighting.tex)
