I have txi312b.zip installed. The exe is MAKEINFO.EXE 124,928 06-26-98 9:58p
My Calc is Version 2.02f from CALC-2.GZ
It all works good with EMACS. And now I can read the Calc tutorial in the
upper window while
trying the examples in the lower Calc window. I could not install the Calc
Info until I had done the
--force switch.
The Calc make went through the compile cleanly until it got to the two .tex
files (Info and refcard) and
then gave up so I had to convert the tex files myself. I might add the Info
looks clean all the way
through.

Of, course, you are correct. And I have always agreed with this, but that
was my way of trying to get
to the matter as far as I could go.
Anything you can say about Calc and also I can only get Gnuplot in the DOS
version (not EMACS) I
sure would like to hear it. I would also like to get Gnuplot that works by
way of EMACS. So far no
luck.
Now my "tree" has grown---
BASH over command.com
BASH alone
EMACS
Calc
Gnuplot (not yet under Calc)
All this is working well, but I have not yet tried below the EMACS level
with BASH.
Should I worry about the fact that I can only load Calc in EMACS with
"Meta-x calc" and not
with the preferred "Meta-#-c"?
Thanks for everything,
Ralph
