jhs> Below is the list of missing info pages. Even though *Info: jhs> (info) is in this list, the documentation is present for jhs> info. Thanks for the help. Basically, you have to go into /usr/share/info and symlink the info files to their correct names. For instance, you need a link viper.info.gz -> viper-e20.gz widget.info.gz -> widget-e20.gz emacs.info.gz -> emacs-e20.gz etc. There's probably an easy script to do this, but it's fairly easy to do it by hand, Cheers, Chris -- Every child in America MUST get one of these things for Christmas or Chanukah or Kwanzaa or Atheist Children Get Presents Day. -- Dave Barry
