It looks like the latest version of texinfo is 5.2. You can find it at: http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/texinfo/texinfo-5.2.tar.gz
After it's downloaded, open terminal, switch to the folder where it's located (I have a source folder in my home folder, and I copy things into that folder in their own folders before opening them, just to keep things organized). (of course, I use wget to download such things instead of a web browser, so I don't need to move them anywhere, but that's another story) Then, at the terminal prompt, type: tar -zxftexinfo-5.2.tar.gz This will create a texinfo-5.2 folder with the contents of the 5.2 texinfo program in it. Rename this folder if you like to make changing to it easier, but if not, then just type: cd texinfo-5.2 Then type the following commands (as each one finishes): ./configure make sudo make install Assuming the rest of your compiler chain is recent enough, the process will produce screens and screens of output, all talking about the versions of tools on your system, where they're located, and of course, the compile messages which sometimes get quite involved. But, assuming all goes well, you'll then have a texinfo version that is updated, and much newer than the one that ships with OSX by default, as this one was released in September (judging from the timestamp on the download page) After that's done, you can go back to your previous program (lewis) and try the make again. There may be other issues, but at least the texinfo version one will be solved. hth. <--- Mac Access At Mac Access Dot Net ---> To reply to this post, please address your message to mac-access@mac-access.net You can find an archive of all messages posted to the Mac-Access forum at the list's public Mail Archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/mac-access@mac-access.net/>.
