1 README for Edition 2.3 of the Emacs Lisp Reference Manual. |
| 4184 | 2 |
| 3 * This directory contains the texinfo source files for the Reference | |
| 4 Manual, make-permuted-index, and the latest version of texinfo.tex, | |
| 5 which handles forms that cannot be handled by the older versions of | |
| 6 texinfo.tex. Also, it contains makeinfo.c. | |
| 7 | |
| 6450 | 8 * Report Lisp Manual bugs to bug-lisp-manual@prep.ai.mit.edu. We |
| 9 don't read these bug reports until it's time for a new edition. To | |
| 10 report other Emacs bugs, use bug-gnu-emacs@prep.ai.mit.edu. | |
| 11 To ask questions, use the newsgroup gnu.emacs.help. | |
| 12 | |
| 13 * The Emacs Lisp Reference Manual is quite large. It totals around | |
| 14 700 pages in smallbook format; the info files total almost two | |
| 15 megabytes. | |
| 4184 | 16 |
| 17 * You can format this manual either for Info or for printing hardcopy | |
| 18 using TeX. | |
| 19 | |
| 6450 | 20 * You can buy nicely printed copies from the Free Software Foundation. |
| 21 For info, send mail to gnu@prep.ai.mit.edu or phone 617-876-3296. | |
| 22 Buying a manual from the Free Software Foundation helps support our | |
| 23 GNU development work. | |
| 24 | |
| 4184 | 25 ** This distribution contains a Makefile that you can use with GNU Make. |
| 26 Otherwise, here are detailed instructions: | |
| 27 | |
| 28 ** HARDCOPY: A copy of the version of `texinfo.tex' that formats this | |
| 29 manual is included in this distribution. | |
| 30 | |
| 31 The master file for formatting this manual for Tex is called | |
| 32 `elisp.texi'. It contains @include commands to include all the | |
| 33 chapters that make up the manual. In addition, `elisp.texi' has | |
| 34 the title page in a new format designed by Karl Berry, using the | |
| 35 @titlespec command. | |
| 36 | |
| 37 To create a DVI file with a sorted index, execute the following | |
| 38 commands in the shell: | |
| 39 | |
| 40 % make index.texi | |
| 41 % make elisp.dvi | |
| 42 | |
| 43 *** To create a DVI file with a permuted index, you may experiment | |
| 44 with `make-permuted-index'. | |
| 45 | |
| 46 ** INFO: A copy of makeinfo.c that will format this manual for Info is | |
| 47 included in this distribution. This program is written in C and can | |
| 48 be used separately from Emacs. `makeinfo' produces much better error | |
| 49 messages than the old `texinfo-format-buffer'. You can run `makeinfo' | |
| 50 it on the `elisp.texi' file. |
