[comp.emacs] Elisp file for *Info* mode

mejicovs@eniac.seas.upenn.edu (03/15/91)

Hi - In my ongoing search for new ways to customize emacs I have decided
 to free up a little time to learn Elisp.  A helpful person at UFL told
 me that he uses the *info* mode in emacs to do this - and that it's the
 greatest thing since sliced cheese.  Tractable thing that I am, I immediately
 went and learned all about *info* and had quite a bit o' fun until I ran up
 against the wall.  In this case the wall was that my system admins neglected
 to place a file that would look something like /elisp in the usr/local/emacs
 /info directory of our machine.

So, what I need is a site from which someone would be able to anonymously ftp
  said file.  Thank you much.  (It's probably MIT - but more info than that
  would be appreciated).

That helpful person from UFL directed me towards a FAQ list with message id's
 of 3358 and 3359 - the only trouble is they have gone to that great message 
 dump in the sky and are no longer retrievable.

Thanks for the help

Try ftp'ing from tut.cis.ohio-state.edu from the gnu/emacs/elisp or
gnu/emacs/info directory trees.  There is a file of all of the elisp
documentation (.texinfo, and .dvi files as well as all of the info
files.)  If you can't find them, I can mail the compressed tar file to
you or put it on our ftp machine.
