What is above is so stupid. I'm not getting enough sleep!!
The main DJGPP Info directory is automatically appended just below the
EMACS directory
(a real nice touch) so when I am in EMACS and call up Info I have BOTH.
Another stupid thing--
I had gone and duplicated the elisp intro tutor and the elisp manual (a
whopper) in the main Info so
I could be sure and get at them whatever I was doing. But as long as I am
in EMACS I have it all.

I apologize for my inattention to this real good detail.
