[Message part 3 (text/plain, inline)]

Hello,

This is a documentation bug report.  The emacs manual 
(http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/pdf/emacs_7x9.pdf) advertised 
at http://shop.fsf.org/product/Emacs_Manual_24/ contains several cross 
references to another document called /Specialized Emacs Features/ with 
filename emacs-xtra.pdf but the hyperlink fails.   E.g., on page 141 we 
find:

   See Section “Emerge” in Specialized Emacs Features, for the Emerge
   facility,
   which provides a powerful interface for merging files.

Also, where can I find a copy ofemacs-xtra.pdf ?

Best regards,

~Pean

Thanks for the report. I added it at

http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/pdf/emacs-xtra.pdf

Note that in all formats apart from pdf (and ps), this information is
included in the normal Emacs manual.
