I've looked through all the documentation and some of the source I got with my release 18.50 tape, and I can't find documentation for emacs lisp. Lots of examples, of course, and a chapter in the manual on the debugger, but no documents! Do I have a bad release tape, did I overlook /usr/emacs/bin/lisp/doc/HereItIs.Dummy!, or is the system expected to be self documenting (one of the three great lies ;-)? I recently saw some code on the net to extract the documentation phrases from funs that have them, but surely there is something better somewhere. I have access to usenet and arpanet, in case a file is lurking on some semi-public machine. If this is a stupid question, thanks for your patience.
