This is to announce that the DJGPP port of version 4.2 of the GNU
Texinfo package is available from SimTel.NET mirrors worldwide:

 http://www.simtel.net/gnudlpage.php?product=/gnu/djgpp/v2gnu/txi42b.zip&name=txi42b.zip 
 http://www.simtel.net/gnudlpage.php?product=/gnu/djgpp/v2gnu/txi42s.zip&name=txi42s.zip 

(The ported package is on SimTel since about 2 months ago, but I forgot 
to post an announcement; sorry about that.)

Texinfo is a package for writing documentation, with tools to produce the 
on-line and printed docs in several formats.  Most GNU packages come with
their docs written and produced by Texinfo programs.  The docs written as
part of the DJGPP project also use Texinfo.

The most significant user-level changes in this release is that makeinfo 
can now generate HTML files split by nodes, and it does that in a way 
that cross-references between different manuals work.  It also supports 
XML and DocBook output.

The Info browser now allows to customize the key bindings (in a way 
similar to Less), and supports man pages with SGR escape sequences 
produced by the latest versions of Groff.

See the file NEWS in the distribution for the full list of new features.

Please direct any further discussions about this port to 
comp.os.msdos.djgpp news group (or write to its e-mail gateway
