Could that produce a problem with the "From ???NNNb.zip" lines in the new DIR I have suggested? There is a lot of text, and usually several tabs as well, in those category names. How is that going to work in a command-line option? I guess I'm asking if I should *not* use tabs in those category names in order to allow the install-info to work correctly. And another thought occurred to me. For big packages like textutils and shellutils and TeX, are we going to need an install-info invocation for each separate utility entry in order to get them into the right DJGPP DIR category? --------------------------------------------------------- Peter J.
