Try `M-x mode4350'. I don't know if there's a way to adjust it more than
that, but when you get info working, see the node of the Emacs docs entitled
"Display on MS-DOS".

forget exactly what causes them not to, but see if the files in
c:\djgpp\info are named `.inf' or `.info'. If the former, rename to `.info'.
