1 If you think you may have found a bug in GNU Emacs, please
|
|
|
2 read the Bugs section of the Emacs manual for advice on
|
|
|
3 (1) how to tell when to report a bug, and
|
|
|
4 (2) how to write a useful bug report and what information
|
|
|
5 it needs to have.
|
|
|
6
|
|
|
7 There are three ways to read the Bugs section.
|
|
|
8
|
|
|
9 (1) In a printed copy of the Emacs manual.
|
|
|
10 You can order one from the Free Software Foundation;
|
|
|
11 see the file etc/ORDERS. But if you don't have a copy on
|
|
|
12 hand and you think you have found a bug, you shouldn't wait
|
|
|
13 to get a printed manual; you should read the section right away
|
|
|
14 as described below.
|
|
|
15
|
|
|
16 (2) With Info. Start Emacs, do C-h i to enter Info,
|
|
|
17 then m Emacs RET to get to the Emacs manual, then m Bugs RET
|
|
|
18 to get to the section on bugs. Or use standalone Info in
|
|
|
19 a like manner. (Standalone Info is part of the Texinfo distribution,
|
|
|
20 not part of the Emacs distribution.)
|
|
|
21
|
|
|
22 (3) By hand. Do
|
|
|
23 cat info/emacs* | more "+/^File: emacs, Node: Bugs,"
|
|
|
