Wrong.

You know the usage of dlocate (seen above) and I assume you know the
usage of less or more.

I used exactely these two programs:
- dlocate to check which package an info file belongs to
- more/less to look into the info file and see what is there

That's it.

Don't tell you couldn't have done that.

Far from "only me", anyone with the fingers on the kbd can do that
by using less and dlocate.

Ford had his own code of ethics. It wasn't much of one,
but it was his and he stuck by it, more or less. One rule
he made was never to buy his own drinks. He wasn't sure if
that counted as an ethic, but you have to go with what
you've got.
