1If you think you may have found a bug in GNU Emacs, please
2read the Bugs section of the Emacs manual for advice on
3(1) how to tell when to report a bug, and
4(2) how to write a useful bug report and what information
5it needs to have.
6
7There are three ways to read the Bugs section.
8
9(1) In a printed copy of the Emacs manual.
10You can order one from the Free Software Foundation;
11see the file etc/ORDERS.  But if you don't have a copy on
12hand and you think you have found a bug, you shouldn't wait
13to get a printed manual; you should read the section right away
14as described below.
15
16(2) With Info.  Start Emacs, do C-h i to enter Info,
17then m Emacs RET to get to the Emacs manual, then m Bugs RET
18to get to the section on bugs.  Or use standalone Info in
19a like manner.  (Standalone Info is part of the Texinfo distribution,
20not part of the Emacs distribution.)
21
22(3) By hand.  Do
23    cat info/emacs* | more "+/^File: emacs,  Node: Bugs,"
24
25Please first check the file etc/PROBLEMS (e.g. with C-h C-e in Emacs) to
26make sure it isn't a known issue.
