Emacs Info info page suggests to set INFOPATH environment variable. Yet, it is not something I feel comfortable doing (it is outside the nice warm Elisp VM). There is also `Info-default-directory-list', but it only works for special non-default value of INFOPATH. Currently, the only way I found to force adding directories as Info sources is the following: (require 'info) (info-initialize) (add-to-list 'Info-directory-list "~/Git/org-mode/doc/") which is awkward. Would it be possible to introduce something like `Info-overriding-directory-list' to be added in front of Info path in Emacs? This will complement `Info-additional-directory-list'.
