   I have all the INFO docs that came with the *DC.ZIP files, and am familiar
   with operating the INFO program. There are some things I'd like to look up
   but can't seem to find (at least, I haven't just yet).
   For starters, preprocessor directives ought to be enumerated, described,
   etc. in there somewhere but I havn't found it. (It would logically be in
   the GCCnnnDC.ZIP file right?) There are loads of them from what I can

Check the Info pages for CPP.

   gather besides the common #include, #define, #if defined, #ifndef, and #endif.
   Another thing: All of the functions of libc and many of the libm functions
   are documented fully, including a lot of the __djgpp and __dpmi group, but
   I have not found some functions of other libraries. Is there another zip I
   should have that has these?
   Lastly I installed gdb and the doc file gdbxxxdc.zip, but the info program
   menu doesn't now list the gdb docs. I managed to find out what the file
   name for it was and how to jump there bypassing menus in Info, but
   annoyingly there seems to be no direct path through the menus to the gdb
   docs... I am assuming you are supposed to create this link manually
   somehow but in the Info on Info I couldn't manage to find out how...
