However, I can live without this particular feature, so I haven't spent much time trying to make it work. But I can tell you how to go to a specific info file which corresponds to your new Org version: from any info page, press the `g' key. When it prompts "Go to node:", enter an opening parenthesis `(', then a path to your desired info filename. (Filename completion via the Tab key works here which is very helpful.) When you reach your filename, close with a final `)' character, although Tab will insert this for you too. Press Enter, and your desired Info file should open. Chris
