How do I get the missing Emacs info > pages on my CentOS 7 VM? There's a couple of things I can think of. First off, is there an "emacs-doc" package for Centos? If so, is it installed? Honestly, I don't think this is the problem, since emacs' info file should be part of the emacs package, but it's easy to check: yum list emacs-\* | grep -i doc Next, check in "/usr/share/info" for the file "emacs.info". If it isn't there, try re-installing emacs. If it is there, check the same directory for the file "doc", which is the top-level node for Info. It should have the lines: Emacs * Emacs: (emacs). (possibly more) in there, under Editors. Beyond that, I'm lost. I hope this helps. --Dale --=20 "It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion.
