Hi,
Trying to read some info page in emacs ...
I have tried M-x info RET syscalls RET and M-x info-apropos RET syscalls
RET but both does not give back the info page of syscalls.
Is there another way to read info page (that are present and readable
from Xterm)?
Thanks to Emacs team for Emacs!

"M-x info RET" should display a page with a large menu, look for
syscalls there, or type "m syscalls RET".
If that doesn't help, find out in what directory you have the syscalls
Info manual, and visit that file via "C-u C-h i", which will prompt
for a file name.

When I type `info syscalls' in xterm, I actually get back the *manual
page* describing syscalls, not the *info page* (I don't think there is
an info page for syscalls?). If that is what you see too, then I don't
believe Emacs info has this feature (fallback to manpage if no info
page). You can use `M-x man RET syscalls RET'.

Since there is no info page for syscalls, I'm closing this as notabug.
If anyone disagrees, feel free to re-open.
Thanks,
