These I simply replaced with the gpl.txt from the above link: > ./etc/COPYING > ./info/COPYING > ./lisp/COPYING > ./src/COPYING > ./COPYING > ./leim/COPYING > ./lib-src/COPYING > ./lwlib/COPYING > ./mac/COPYING > ./msdos/COPYING > ./nt/COPYING These I didn't touch; they should be corrected when they're regenerated: > ./info/emacs-5 > ./info/elisp-9 > ./info/mh-e-1 > ./info/calc-1 These I fixed up: > ./lispref/gpl.texi > ./man/calc.texi > ./man/emacs.texi > ./man/mh-e.texi By the way, the gpl.texi from the above link has the line: Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) 19@var{yy} @var{name of author} To make it match gpl.txt, I used "@var{yyyy}" instead of "19@var{yy}". (gpl.txt uses "year" instead of "yyyy", but gpl.texi consistently replaced "year" by "@var{yy..}".) Jay
