|
2005-07-08 22:30:17 +00:00
|
|
|
|
1100 pages in smallbook format; the info files total over
|
2001-07-27 07:09:54 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2.5 megabytes.
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
* You can format this manual either for Info or for printing hardcopy
|
2003-02-04 14:56:31 +00:00
|
|
|
|
using TeX.

|
** HARDCOPY: A copy of the version of `texinfo.tex' that formats this
|
|
|
|
|
|
manual is included in this distribution.

The master file for formatting this manual for Tex is called
|
|
|
|
|
|
`elisp.texi'. It contains @include commands to include all the
|
|
|
|
|
|
chapters that make up the manual. In addition, `elisp.texi' has
|
|
|
|
|
|
the title page in a new format designed by Karl Berry, using the
|
|
|
|
|
|
@titlespec command.

|
|
|
% ./configure
|
1993-07-20 06:07:58 +00:00
|
|
|
|
% make index.texi
|
|
|
|
|
|
% make elisp.dvi
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** To create a DVI file with a permuted index, you may experiment
|
2003-02-04 14:56:31 +00:00
|
|
|
|
with `make-permuted-index'.
