PMFJI here, but I think he's asking for the "all entries" list Eli and 
I have previously discussed, and which we agree seems like a 
less-than-useful addition to the DJGPP DIR file.  It adds nothing to 
info's capabilities, and makes the DIR file very, very long.  Typing 
"info <program name>" is much quicker and easier, and doesn't clutter 
the DIR file.
