Online documentation paths

The standalone documentation browser info needs to know the location of the documentation files in the distribution. The default location, `/usr/cygnus/progressive-95q4/info', is compiled into info. If you install elsewhere, set the environment variable INFOPATH to indicate the alternate location.

For example, assuming you installed under `/local':

For shells compatible with Bourne shell (/bin/sh, bash, or Korn shell):

eg$ INFOPATH=/local/progressive-95q4/info
eg$ export INFOPATH

For C shell:

eg% setenv INFOPATH /local/progressive-95q4/info

If you built `progressive' as a symbolic link to `progressive-95q4', as recommended in section Links for easy access and updating, then you could simply use `/local/progressive/info' as the value of INFOPATH in the examples above.

You should also ensure that your man command can pick up the manual pages for these tools. Some man programs recognize a MANPATH environment variable. If your man program is one of these, users at your site can also include in their initialization file lines like

For Bourne-compatible shells:

eg$ MANPATH=/usr/cygnus/progressive/man:$MANPATH:/usr/man
eg$ export MANPATH

For C shell:

eg% setenv MANPATH /usr/cygnus/progressive/man:$MANPATH:/usr/man

If your man program doesn't recognize MANPATH, you may want to copy or link the files from `installdir/progressive/man/man1' into your system's `man/man1' directory.
