462 * @result{}, @expansion{}, @print{}, @quiv{}, @point{},
463 and @error{} are the terms now being used. The files in the
464 directory have been changed to reflect this.

471 * @result{}, @expandsto{}, @prints{}, @quiv{}, @error{}, and the
472 experimental @indentedresult{}, @indentedexpandsto{} are part of
473 the texinfo.tex in this directory. These TeX macros are not
474 stable yet.

485 * Applied Karl Berry's patches to *.texinfo files, but not to
486 texinfo.tex; those diffs are in `berry-texinfo-tex-diffs'. (Karl's
487 new title page format is also not applied, since it requires
488 texinfo.tex changes.)
489
490 * Cleaned up `Makefile' and defined the `emacslibdir' directory
491 for the Project GNU development environment.
