5.1 Where are the documentation files?

Q: I don't see any documentation files...


A: The documentation files are in the info/ subdirectory of your main DJGPP installation directory. You will need a program to read these docs, which are hypertext structured files. You have several choices:
  1. Use the stand-alone Info reader.

    Texinfo includes INFO.EXE and its docs. Unzip it and type info <Enter>. It will bring up a (hopefully) self-explanatory online help system. Confused? Press ? to see the list of all Info commands. Still confused? Press h to have Info take you on a guided tour through its commands and features.

  2. Use the Info command of your favorite editor.

    If you use Emacs, you already know about Info. (What's that? You don't? Type C-h <i> and you will get the top-level menu of all the Info topics.) RHIDE also has an integrated Info reader, which is the core of its help system.

  3. Get and install TkInfo, a graphical browser for Info documentation that runs on MS-Windows and uses a port of Tcl/Tk. TkInfo is free and available from the Web.
