Re: Latest Development Version - @image with @value

[Christopher Dimech]

Fantastic.  Things age working now.  texinfo.tex is mentioned in the README 
file.

There are three files README, INSTALL, INSTALL.generic.  When reading them, 
they continue
referring around between themselves.

Can there be just one README (otherwise have just one INSTALL file) with 
abbreviated
set of instructions of typical installation, at the beginning?

Thank you both for bearing with me.  But it was not so clear and quick
about what exactly one should do when trying development versions.

--------

% mkdir build
% cd build
% srcdir/configure [options] [target]
% make
% make install
% cp srcdir/doc/texinfo.tex workdir

Where workdir is the directory of your main Texinfo input file.
