586 Tue Apr 11 12:23:28 1989 Robert J. Chassell (bob@rice-chex.ai.mit.edu)
588 * Applied Karl Berry's patches to *.texinfo files, but not to
589 texinfo.tex; those diffs are in `berry-texinfo-tex-diffs'. (Karl's
590 new title page format is also not applied, since it requires
591 texinfo.tex changes.)
593 * Cleaned up `Makefile' and defined the `emacslibdir' directory
594 for the Project GNU development environment.
