From: Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen <larsi <at> gnus.org> To: 23208 <at> debbugs.gnu.org Subject: bug#23208: 25.1.50; `C-h i' in an uninstalled Emacs doesn't work Date: Sun, 03 Apr 2016 20:59:43 +0200
I'm pretty sure that it didn't work in the olden days, too, but it was fixed a few years ago. And now it doesn't work again. `C-h i' should default to .../info/dir if no dir file exists in `Info-directory-list'. Or perhaps just be a part of the default value?
