Please get the latest fil313b.zip (dated Nov 5th or later); mv.exe there should have the size of 69632 bytes and be dated Nov 5, 1996, 14:25. > The info command will not find the file specified with the -f option. > An example follows (the command works with lfn=n): > > C:\download\TEMP>set lfn=y > C:\download\TEMP>info -f g77 > info.exe: g77: No such file or directory (ENOENT) This is an entirely different problem. I'd guess that the g77 Info file is called `g77.inf' on your system. If so, you should rename it to `g77.info', because when LFN is enabled, info.exe looks for the full long filenames. (Alternatively, I think you could say "info -f g77.inf" and it should work too.) If the file is indeed called `g77.inf' and you got it from some pre-compiled distribution, I suggest you write to whoever produced that g77 distribution and ask them to make their zip files LFN-clean (they should use an LFN-aware Zip program and call the file by its original long filename when zipping); or maybe the zip is OK, but you unzipped it with an unzip program which doesn't support long filenames. Btw, the recommended method of calling Info is this: info g77 This requires that you update the master menu (found on the info/dir file) to include a menu item whose name begins with "g77". Info will then find the file g77.inf automagically.
