- This is the file .../info/dir, which contains the topmost node of the Info
- hierarchy. The first time you invoke Info you start off looking at that node,
- which is (dir)Top.
-
- Rather than adding new nodes to this directory (and this file) it is a better
- idea to put them in a site-local directory, and then configure info to search
- in that directory as well. That way, you won't have to re-edit this file when
- a new release of the editor comes out.
-
- For example, you could add this code to .../lisp/site-start.el, which is
- loaded before ~/.emacs each time the editor starts up:
-
- ;; find local info nodes
- (setq Info-directory-list
- (append Info-directory-list '("/private/info/")))
-
- Then, when you enter info, the contents of the file "/private/info/localdir"
- will be appended to the contents of this file (where the "* Locals:" line is.)
- The "localdir" file should simply contain lines like in this file, listing the
- names of the info files in its directory.
-
- File: dir Node: Top This is the top of the INFO tree

- This is Info, the online documentation browsing system.
- This page (the Directory node) gives a menu of major topics.
-
- button1 or button2 on a highlighted word follows that cross-reference.
- button3 anywhere brings up a menu of commands.
- ? lists additional keyboard commands.
- h invokes the Info tutorial.
