  I'm not exactly sure what you mean by the two lines above, but
  info.el is at the same path on my computer.

 FYI: I've *never* seen this node on emacs. I delayed digging into
 because I thought I'd 'screwed up' for previous version, now that I've

 On the other hand XEmacs gives me nodes for both emacs and xemacs

 Thanks for the help
