[Bug-gnupress] Using the GNU Compiler Collection

[Simon Law]

Here's some great news.

        Paragraph indentation is now "correct".  The patch I sent to
address@hidden should be committed to CVS soon.  We have our own
local copy in our CVS at gnupress/texpress/texinfo.tex.

        We also have a decent font implementation in
gnupress/texpress/palatino.tex which will eventually get revamped and
folded into the Texinfo distribution.  I am in heavy design mode with
Karl right now.

        In order to get decent output, you should update your gnupress
CVS and then grab the latest gcc-3_3-branch of GCC and apply the
attached patch (gcc-3.3-manual-000.patch).  Then pass the -I option to
texi2dvi to suck in the right include directory.  For example:

    $ ./configure
    $ make TEXI2DVI="texi2dvi -I ~/gnupress/texpress" dvi

        Thanks go to Jim for driving patches upstream to GCC.  I'm not
sure how much of our typesetting fixups have made it into their CVS
tree; but I'm sure he can enlighten us.

        My copy of the manual hits 386 pages.  To fill 24 signatures, we
need 384.  I know we can get this down to 384, but I want to do this
after copyediting has taken place.  I'm pretty sure we can start doing
that soon.
