This third edition of 2006 Oct 31 updates the previous editions to GNU
Emacs 22.
The Texinfo source file `emacs-lisp-intro.texi', formats without
reported error using `pdfeTeXk', Version 3.141592-1.21a-2.2 (Web2C
7.5.4) and texinfo.tex version 2006-08-26.17 started by `texi2dvi'
version 4.8, and with `makeinfo' version 4.8.
This directory contains the following Encapsulated PostScript figures:
cons-1.eps, cons-2.eps, cons-2a.eps, cons-3.eps, cons-4.eps, cons-5.eps
drawers.eps, lambda-1.eps, lambda-2.eps, lambda-3.eps
See the beginning of the `emacs-lisp-intro.texi' file for appropriate
settings. These figures are not necessary; they are merely nice to
look at --- without them you get the same figures printed with ASCII
characters.
Whether and how you print PostScript depends on your site. You not
only need to set 'print-postscript-figures' before creating the .dvi
file, but then must convert the .dvi file to .ps with a 'dvips' or
equivalent command.
On some systems you will see an error message when `psfig.tex' is
loaded for the last two .eps files:
! No room for a new \write .
If this happens, try `epsf.tex' instead of `psfig.tex', or try typing
RET at the error; the formatting may continue successfully.
Or else find the section that says:
@c !!! Clear print-postscript-figures if the computer formatting this
@c document is too small and cannot handle all the diagrams and figures.
@c clear print-postscript-figures
and change the file so it reads: @clear print-postscript-figures
This will prevent TeX from attempting to load the last few .eps files.
You will find additional instructions on formatting in the beginning
of the Texinfo file 'emacs-lisp-intro.texi'. Best Wishes!
