If you think you may have found a bug in GNU Emacs, please
|
||
|
|
read the Bugs section of the Emacs manual for advice on
|
||
|
|
(1) how to tell when to report a bug, and
|
||
|
|
(2) how to write a useful bug report and what information
|
||
|
|
it needs to have.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There are three ways to read the Bugs section.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(1) In a printed copy of the Emacs manual.
|
||
|
|
You can order one from the Free Software Foundation;
|
||
|
|
see the file etc/ORDERS. But if you don't have a copy on
|
||
|
|
hand and you think you have found a bug, you shouldn't wait
|
||
|
|
to get a printed manual; you should read the section right away
|
||
|
|
as described below.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(2) With Info. Start Emacs, do C-h i to enter Info,
|
||
|
|
then m Emacs RET to get to the Emacs manual, then m Bugs RET
|
||
|
|
to get to the section on bugs. Or use standalone Info in
|
||
|
|
a like manner. (Standalone Info is part of the Texinfo distribution,
|
||
|
|
not part of the Emacs distribution.)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(3) By hand. Do
|
||
|
|
cat info/emacs* | more "+/^File: emacs, Node: Bugs,"
|
||
|
|
|
