Weeell, all my info files are in '/usr/share/info' and they end in .gz
and can't be viewed as text. New zsh info files are in
'/usr/local/share/info' all by themselves and they are viewable. ( .gz =
zipped yes? So info is happy either way it seems).
% info zsh'
... still shows 5.8 version, but
% info /usr/local/share/info/zsh
... shows 5.9 version. Funny thing is that 'dir' in '/usr/share/info'
has been updated so it would seem that it's anticipating an update to
the main info tree, but all the files are old. Is there a manual fix
for this? If not:
#zhelp() { info zsh $1 }
zhelp() { info /usr/local/share/info/zsh $1 }
... seems perfectly workable.
