        * @result{}, @expandsto{}, @prints{}, @quiv{}, @error{}, and the
        experimental @indentedresult{}, @indentedexpandsto{} are part of
        the texinfo.tex in this directory.  These TeX macros are not
        stable yet.

Mon Apr 17 18:56:50 1989  Robert J. Chassell  (bob@rice-chex.ai.mit.edu)

        * texinfo.tex:  temporarily added

        * Applied Karl Berry's patches to *.texinfo files, but not to
        texinfo.tex; those diffs are in `berry-texinfo-tex-diffs'. (Karl's
        new title page format is also not applied, since it requires
        texinfo.tex changes.)

        * Cleaned up `Makefile' and defined the `emacslibdir' directory
        for the Project GNU development environment.
