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

476 * @result{}, @expandsto{}, @prints{}, @quiv{}, @error{}, and the
477 experimental @indentedresult{}, @indentedexpandsto{} are part of
478 the texinfo.tex in this directory. These TeX macros are not
479 stable yet.

490 * Applied Karl Berry's patches to *.texinfo files, but not to
491 texinfo.tex; those diffs are in `berry-texinfo-tex-diffs'. (Karl's
492 new title page format is also not applied, since it requires
493 texinfo.tex changes.)
494
495 * Cleaned up `Makefile' and defined the `emacslibdir' directory
496 for the Project GNU development environment.
