521 * @result{}, @expansion{}, @print{}, @quiv{}, @point{},
522 and @error{} are the terms now being used. The files in the
523 directory have been changed to reflect this.
524
525 * All instances of @indentedresultt{} have been changed to
526 ` @result{}', using 5 spaces at the begining of the line.

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

536
537 * texinfo.tex: temporarily added
538 \let\result=\dblarrow
539 \def\error{{\it ERROR} \longdblarrow}
540 We need to do this better soon.

544 * Applied Karl Berry's patches to *.texinfo files, but not to
545 texinfo.tex; those diffs are in `berry-texinfo-tex-diffs'. (Karl's
546 new title page format is also not applied, since it requires
547 texinfo.tex changes.)
548
549 * Cleaned up `Makefile' and defined the `emacslibdir' directory
550 for the Project GNU development environment.
