I am puzzled by this bug report. The path returned by pathdef() is used only for finding *.m and *.oct files and not the executables in /usr/lib/octave/<version>/exec/<arch>. BTW, the following works perfectly for me: $ sudo apt-get install emacs21 gnuserv octave2.9 octave2.9-info $ emacs -eval "(gnuserv-start)" & $ octave2.9 octave2.9:1> info_program ("info-emacs-info") octave2.9:2> doc I see then the info directory in my emacs frame. Does this work for you? I may have misunderstood your problem. At any rate, I am tagging this bug report "moreinfo", meaning that if we do not receive further informations in a reasonable time frame I will close this bug report. -- Rafael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
