Suppose you want to see the code for function find-file. Then type:
C-h f find-file [ENTER]
A window will appear with the documentation for find-file. The first
line on that window is:
find-file is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `files.el'.
The text `files.el' is an hyperlink. Click on it or move the cursor on
top of it and press [ENTER] and Emacs will show the file where find-file
is implemented. For me it is
/usr/local/share/emacs/24.1.50/lisp/files.el.gz
but it varies depending on version, operative system and method of
installation. The file.el.gz is compressed with gzip (to save disk
space, apparently) but Emacs shows it decompressed for you.

oh,yeah,I get that,
what is the relationship between *.el files in emacs source doc and the installed *.el files which are located at /usr/share/ directory?
thank you!
