The info.exe that one can simply click-download is definitely the v1 one. I've never installed info before. Actually, what I'm trying to do is update my plug-n-play ("ez2load") GNAT kit. As you probably know, the NYU/ACT folks include a mini-djgpp (1 diskette worth, zipped, including the FAQ) which has just enough to run GNAT. I'm adding some stuff, especially the info files for GDB, which I think are quite essential. So I figured info would be nice for reading these docs. Thanks for the help, as usual, Eli!
