Hi there,
I was trying to port emacs (21-2) to Interix. Though porting was
successfull, command "make install" failed.
It failed while looking for executable "install-info"
Make file assigns "INSTALL_INFO" to "install-info", but there is no
executable/script named so.
Is this executable/script created on the fly, If so where ?
Or it is there in tar ball (atleast i couldn't find it in tar -ball).
Thanks and BR
Dhruv Kumar

`install-info' is an executable which is part of Texinfo. It isn't
included with Emacs. This is what it does:
,----
| `install-info' inserts menu entries from an Info file into the
| top-level `dir' file in the Info system (see the previous sections for
| an explanation of how the `dir' file works). It's most often run as
| part of software installation, or when constructing a `dir' file for
| all manuals on a system.
