Package: emacs-lisp-intro
Version: 2.04
Summary: The texinfo file sets filename "emacs-lisp-intro.info",
but uses the name "eintr" for its dir entry.
In emacs-lisp-intro-2.04.tar.gz, all emacs-lisp-intro.info* files
contain the lines:
START-INFO-DIR-ENTRY
* Emacs Lisp Intro: (eintr).
A simple introduction to Emacs Lisp programming.
END-INFO-DIR-ENTRY
This comes from the emacs-lisp-intro.texi file which contains the lines:
@dircategory Emacs
@direntry
* Emacs Lisp Intro: (eintr).
A simple introduction to Emacs Lisp programming.
@end direntry
But emacs-lisp-intro.texi also contains the line:
@setfilename emacs-lisp-intro.info
The name in the @direntry line should be changed from "eintr" to
"emacs-lisp-intro" in the next release.
Please let me know if there is a bug-reporting address that is more
specific to this emacs-lisp-intro package.
Thanks,
Kirk Hilliard

Thank you for your report.

Well, actually we fixed this the other way around: @setfilename now
uses eintr.
emacs-lisp-intro.texi is part of the Emacs distribution now. You
probably caught it half way between an independent package and full
inclusion in the Emacs distro.

That's cool.

Where? I looked in emacs-21.4a.tar.gz and didn't find it. Specifically:
$ tar tzvf emacs-21.4a.tar.gz | grep intro
$
[I don't see anything suggestive of it amongst the 70 .texi files either.]
There is an intro.texi in elisp-manual_21-2.8.orig.tar.gz, but that is
the introduction the the elisp manual itself.
Is there something I am missing?
Thanks,
Kirk

I meant in the current development sources. You can see that in the
Emacs CVS tree. The next released version will have the intro
bundled.

Ahah, I understand.
You have probably already considered this, but when you do release it,
you may wish to put a file, explaining its bundling, called
emacs-lisp-intro-README-latest-edition
(or something) on the ftp site accompanying the old versions
emacs-lisp-intro-1.05.tar.gz
emacs-lisp-intro-2.04.tar.gz
emacs-lisp-intro-README
emacs-lisp-intro-README-2nd-edition
so those who miss the news and just check the ftp site will know what
happened.
Thanks tons,
Kirk Hilliard
