No 'info' node for emacs is available. Example: c-h i memacs RET gives me [no match] the shell command: locate /info/emacs | more seems to indicate that emacs info files are at /usr/share/info and /usr/local/info/ I've set INFOPATH as follows in .bashrc export INFOPATH="/usr/local/info:/usr/share/info" echo $INFOPATH from both shell and from emacs shell command confirms this path value. And here's the puzzling thing: 1)eval-expression (info "emacs") gives me the node. 2)calling `info emacs' from shell gives me the node as a standalone feature. And ideas? thanks tim -- Tim Johnson http://www.alaska-internet-solutions.com
