But you don't have a texinfo.tex file installed. What kind of broken install is this? I use texlive 2007 for Mac OS X, this comes with a texinfo.tex file, and works fine. This is how it looks for me: This is pdfTeXk, Version 3.141592-1.40.3 (Web2C 7.5.6) file:line:error style messages enabled. %&-line parsing enabled. entering extended mode (/Users/bernd/proj/gforth/doc/gforth.texi (/usr/local/texlive/2007/texmf-dist/tex/texinfo/texinfo.tex Loading texinfo [version 2007-01-02.19]: pdf, fonts, page headings, tables, conditionals, indexing, sectioning, toc, environments, defuns, macros, cross references, insertions, (/usr/local/texlive/2007/texmf-dist/tex/generic/epsf/epsf.tex This is `epsf.tex' v2.7.3 <23 July 2005> ) localization, formatting, and turning on texinfo input format.)
