Yes, I assume most software come with documentation for the man/less (Emacs [wo]man mode etc.), info, and possible other tools around to access it (even .html pages for whatever browser) and that this doesn't come with the browser tools themselves (except for how to use the very tools :)). So it is not in Emacs but it is Emacs. >> But yes: both info emacs and info "Emacs FAQ" gets >> the Emacs FAQ (identical stuff). > > What happens if you do "C-h i m Emacs RET" in Emacs? Of course, I don't get it there either. I get: Emacs FAQ Emacs-w3m Emacs-w3m-ja (Gosh, bet you didn't know I speak Japanese? Just like Logan, nobody bothered asking.

Yeah, I remember I had to install the gcc documentation (gcc-doc) explicitly for, I guess, the same reason. Yeah, what is the reason? In /etc/apt/sources.list, put for example: deb http://ftp.se.debian.org/debian/ jessie main non-free contrib deb-src http://ftp.se.debian.org/debian/ jessie main non-free contrib But, what is the Emacs pack called? There is no emacs-doc. -- underground experts united: http://user.it.uu.se/~embe8573
