-*- Text -*- 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-default-directory-list (append Info-default-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. * Menu: XEmacs 20.5 =========== * Info:: Documentation browsing system. * XEmacs:: The extensible user-friendly self-documenting text editor.
