Info fails to find history.info


From: Joe Wells
Subject: Info fails to find history.info

User-agent: Gnus/5.11 (Gnus v5.11) Emacs/22.0.50 (gnu/linux)

The readline 5.1 package comes with a file named history.info which
documents the GNU history library.  The Info subsystem of Emacs fails
to find history.info because it treats the file name "history" as
special.  In particular, (Info-find-file "history") always returns the
symbol history instead of a path to a file.  This makes it somewhat
hard to read the manual for the GNU history library.
