1797 (install): Use infodir.
1798 (emacsinfodir): Deleted.
1800 Thu May 27 02:11:25 1993 Richard Stallman (rms@mole.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1802 * Makefile (srcs): Add calendar.texi.
1804 * Makefile (dist): Copy texindex.c and makeinfo.c.
1805 Limit elisp-* files to those with one or two digits.
1807 Sun May 16 17:58:21 1993 Jim Blandy (jimb@wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1809 * Makefile (dist): Changed to use Gzip instead of compress.
1811 Fri Apr 23 01:05:23 1993 Eric S. Raymond (eric@mole.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1813 * loading.texi (Unloading): define-function changed back to
1814 defalias. It may not stay this way, but at least it's
1815 consistent with the known-good version of the code patch.
1817 Fri Mar 26 21:14:54 1993 Eric S. Raymond (eric@geech.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1819 * modes.texi (Hooks): Document new optional arg of add-hook.
1821 Wed Mar 17 08:48:24 1993 Eric S. Raymond (eric@mole.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1823 * variables.texi: Document nil initial value of buffer-local variables.
1825 * tips.texi: Add new section on standard library headers.
1827 Sat Feb 27 18:00:25 1993 Jim Blandy (jimb@wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1829 * Makefile (srcs): Add frame.texi to the list of sources.
1831 Tue Feb 23 10:50:25 1993 Jim Blandy (jimb@wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1833 * Makefile (dist): Don't bother excluding autosave files; they'll
1834 never make it into the temp directory anyway, and the hash marks
1835 in the name are problematic for make and the Bourne shell.
1838 Fri Feb 12 16:54:38 1993 Jim Blandy (jimb@wookumz.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1840 * Makefile (dist): Don't include backup files or autosave files in
1841 the distribution tar file.
1843 Tue Nov 26 21:10:34 1991 Richard Stallman (rms@mole.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
1845 * Makefile (srcs): Added index.perm.
1846 (elisp.dvi): Remove erroneous shell comment.
1847 Expect output of permute-index in permuted.fns.
1848 Save old elisp.aux in elisp.oaux.
1849 (clean): Added index.texi to be deleted.
1851 Sat Aug 11 17:39:10 1990 Richard Stallman (rms@sugar-bombs.ai.mit.edu)
1853 * Makefile (elisp.dvi, index.texi): Use shell if instead of ifdef.
1855 Tue Jun 26 09:57:26 1990 David Lawrence (tale@geech)
1857 * files.texi: Noted that completion-ignored-extensions is ignored
1858 when making *Completions*.
1860 Fri Jun 8 16:44:44 EDT 1990 Jay Fenlason (hack@ai.mit.edu)
1862 * Makefile make dist now depends on elisp.dvi, since it tries
1863 to include it in the dist file.
1865 Wed Mar 28 22:57:35 1990 Jim Kingdon (kingdon@mole.ai.mit.edu)
1867 * functions.texinfo (Mapping Functions): Add missing quote
1869 Mon Jun 19 18:09:24 1989 Richard Stallman (rms@sugar-bombs.ai.mit.edu)
1871 * texinfo.tex (frenchspacing): Use decimal codes for char to be set.
1872 (defunargs): Turn off \hyphenchar of \sl font temporarily.
1874 Wed May 10 18:01:17 1989 Robert J. Chassell (bob@rice-chex.ai.mit.edu)
1876 * @result{}, @expansion{}, @print{}, @quiv{}, @point{},
1877 and @error{} are the terms now being used. The files in the
1878 directory have been changed to reflect this.
1880 * All instances of @indentedresultt{} have been changed to
1881 ` @result{}', using 5 spaces at the begining of the line.
1883 Mon Apr 24 21:02:55 1989 Robert J. Chassell (bob@rice-chex.ai.mit.edu)
1885 * @result{}, @expandsto{}, @prints{}, @quiv{}, @error{}, and the
1886 experimental @indentedresult{}, @indentedexpandsto{} are part of
1887 the texinfo.tex in this directory. These TeX macros are not
1890 Mon Apr 17 18:56:50 1989 Robert J. Chassell (bob@rice-chex.ai.mit.edu)
1892 * texinfo.tex: temporarily added
1893 \let\result=\dblarrow
1894 \def\error{{\it ERROR} \longdblarrow}
1895 We need to do this better soon.
1897 Tue Apr 11 12:23:28 1989 Robert J. Chassell (bob@rice-chex.ai.mit.edu)
1899 * Applied Karl Berry's patches to *.texinfo files, but not to
1900 texinfo.tex; those diffs are in `berry-texinfo-tex-diffs'. (Karl's
1901 new title page format is also not applied, since it requires
1902 texinfo.tex changes.)
1904 * Cleaned up `Makefile' and defined the `emacslibdir' directory
1905 for the Project GNU development environment.
