Hi!
Can someone please answer an amateurs question?
I've just installed the port of GNU emacs for MSDOS and MSWINDOWS(by Eli
Zaretskii) and everything worked allright up until I tried to browse the
manuals(Info system) with the command C-h i. Emacs says it can't find
the Info directory node.
I've installed it in the proper fashion, unzipping it with pkunzip with
the -d argument, executing cwsdpmi, adding the directory where emacs.exe
resides to my path and even editing the startup file(_emacs.xmp renamed
to _emacs) so that the "setq Info-additional-directory-list" portion
points to where the dir file resides. The dir file exists and seems
allright, I've opened it with C-x C-f.
All the other C-h commands works allright.
I'm grateful for any help as I'm very fond of Emacs and is frustrated at
not being able to perform such a basic task as browsing the manuals.
