| 3 This is the file .../info/dir, which contains the topmost node of the Info | |
| 4 hierarchy. The first time you invoke Info you start off looking at that node, | |
| 5 which is (dir)Top. | |
| 6 | |
| 7 Rather than adding new nodes to this directory (and this file) it is a better | |
| 8 idea to put them in a site-local directory, and then configure info to search | |
| 9 in that directory as well. That way, you won't have to re-edit this file when | |
| 10 a new release of the editor comes out. | |
| 11 | |
| 12 For example, you could add this code to .../lisp/site-start.el, which is | |
| 13 loaded before ~/.emacs each time the editor starts up: | |
| 14 | |
| 15 ;; find local info nodes | |
| 16 (setq Info-directory-list | |
| 17 (append Info-directory-list '("/private/info/"))) | |
| 18 | |
| 19 Then, when you enter info, a dir file like this one will be automatically | |
| 20 created and saved (provided you have write access to the directory). The | |
| 21 contents of that file "/private/info/dir" will be appended to the contents of | |
| 22 this file. | |

| 25 File: dir Node: Top This is the top of the INFO tree | |

| 27 This is Info, the online documentation browsing system. | |
| 28 This page (the Directory node) gives a menu of major topics. | |
| 29 | |
| 30 button1 or button2 on a highlighted word follows that cross-reference. | |
| 31 button3 anywhere brings up a menu of commands. | |
| 32 ? lists additional keyboard commands. | |
| 33 h invokes the Info tutorial. | |
