i've just comitted some small changes to rk.header(), .rk.make.hr() and 
rk.set.output.html.file() which do add the desired TOC feature to the HTML 
output. it's still all in one file, new results are added dynamically to the 
menu by a JavaScript function call. maybe it doesn't look too pretty yet, but 
with a little CSS this can be made into a simple and well working solution.

you'll need to reset the output file to check it out.
