OK what am I doing wrong? I've installed a later version of gnus as ding chooses to use the gnus, gnus-1 naming scheme root:/usr/local/info>ls 22:38 bison.info gcc.info-13 gcc.info-4 gnus.info-7 make.info-6 bison.info-1 gcc.info-14 gcc.info-5 gnus.info-8 make.info-7 bison.info-2 gcc.info-15 gcc.info-6 gnus.info-9 make.info-8 bison.info-3 gcc.info-16 gcc.info-7 gzip.info workman.info bison.info-4 gcc.info-17 gcc.info-8 localdir zsh.info bison.info-5 gcc.info-18 gcc.info-9 m4.info zsh.info-1 cpp.info gcc.info-19 gnus.info m4.info-1 zsh.info-2 cpp.info-1 gcc.info-2 gnus.info-1 m4.info-2 zsh.info-3 cpp.info-2 gcc.info-20 gnus.info-10 m4.info-3 zsh.info-4 cpp.info-3 gcc.info-21 gnus.info-11 make.info zsh.info-5 gcc.info gcc.info-22 gnus.info-2 make.info-1 zsh.info-6 gcc.info-1 gcc.info-23 gnus.info-3 make.info-2 gcc.info-10 gcc.info-24 gnus.info-4 make.info-3 gcc.info-11 gcc.info-25 gnus.info-5 make.info-4 gcc.info-12 gcc.info-3 gnus.info-6 make.info-5 File: localdir Node: Top This is the top of the INFO tree This is Info, the online documentation browsing system. This page (the Directory node) gives a menu of major topics. button1 or button2 on a highlighted word follows that cross-reference. button3 anywhere brings up a menu of commands. ? lists additional keyboard commands. h invokes the Info tutorial. * Menu: * SGNUS:(gnus.info). Lars's cool GNUS. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Info-directory-list is Info-directory-list's value is ("/usr/local/lib/xemacs-19.14/info/" "/usr/local/info") However, when I try to traverse the SGNUS node it loads the gnus node from the xemacs info directory not my site-local directory. I believe if it founds the node definition for my info that any nodes are then relative from my localdir _not_ dir What am I missing? XEMACS 19.14 -- They pay homage to a king who's dreams are buried in their minds. His tears are frozen stiff. Icicles drip from his eyes.
