C-h i m only works if you have not used C-h i for other info documentation. It assumes that the info reader starts in the directory. More generally, type C-h i followed by ‘d’ (to go to the directory) and then ‘m’ to specify a menu entry. 2. C-h i d m elisp would open the Emacs Lisp reference manual, which is not the Introduction to Emacs Lisp. For that, use C-h i d m, and then type Emacs Lisp Intro at the "menu item:" prompt. -- The lyf so short, the craft so long to lerne. - Geoffrey Chaucer, The Parliament of Birds.
