Texinfo, Version 2.10
=====================
* This is a late beta test. This version includes Brian Fox's latest
fixes to makeinfo.c---this is the first update to makeinfo.c since
June.
Other changes are less significant.
`texnfo-tex.el' uses sentinels now and has a new function that to
quit a currently running TeX job, by sending an `x' to it. Also,
runs `/bin/sh' so `explicit-shell-file-name' is not set globally
`texinfo.el' makes `indent-tabs-mode' a local variable and set it to
nil to prevent TABs troubles with TeX.
`texinfmt.el' now looks handles Cambridge Univ. Press style
dashes (like --- this) as well as Oxford Univ. style dashes
(like--this).
`texnfo-upd.el' and `texi2dvi' received bug fixes.
`texinfo2.texi' somewhat improved.
* Please try this out and send me bug reports.
26 September 1991
Robert J. Chassell
Bugs to bob@gnu.ai.mit.edu. I maintain the Emacs Lisp files and the
manual. I forward bug reports for info, makeinfo, and texindex to
bfox@gnu.ai.mit.edu, reports for texinfo.tex to rms@gnu.ai.mit.edu,
and reports for texi2dvi to roland@gnu.ai.mit.edu.
Use a command such as 'tar xvzf texinfo2.tar.Z' to uncompress and
extract the files.
This directory contains version 2 of the Texinfo package:
texinfo2.texi This is Edition 2 of the Texinfo Manual,
dated September 1991
README This file
Makefile Create a compressed tar file of the package,
as distributed
New-features Summary of new features
texinfo.tex Definitions file used by Tex
texi2dvi Shell script for producing indexed DVI files
>texi2roff< to be added when new version is ready
Convert Texinfo file to [nt]roff form.
The `elisp' subdirectory contains Emacs lisp code:
texinfo.el Texinfo mode
texnfo-upd.el Texinfo node and menu updating
texinfmt.el Emacs lisp Info formatting
makeinfo.el Emacs interface to the `makeinfo' formatting program
texnfo-tex.el TeX and hardcopy printing
info.el The standard Emacs Info files,
informat.el included here for convenience.
All these files should be installed in the default load-path for Emacs;
otherwise Emacs will not be able to load the autoloaded support files,
such as `texinfmt.el'. The `texinfo.el' file contains the autoload
commands; it is the only file that needs to be loaded initially.
The `C' subdirectory contains C code:
makeinfo.c `makeinfo' source
info.c `info' source
getopt.c support files
getopt1.c
getopt.h
texindex.c sort indices for TeX; included here for convenience
configure Create a Makefile which in turn creates an `info' or
`makeinfo' executable, or a C sources
distribution.
Makefile.in Template for `configure' to use to make a Makefile
(Run `configure' first, then `make' to compile
info and makeinfo.)
This separate Texinfo package is temporary; after a period of testing,
this documentation and software will be merged into the Emacs
distribution. (But we may continue to distribute this in a
separate package as well, for the convenience of those who just want
these files.)
