Thanks, I'll try this (in a slightly edited version :-).  However,
this only set's environment-variables, so while it would set INFOPATH,
it probably wouldn't set Info-default-directory-list or
Info-directory-list.  Let's see, if I eval:

(setenv "INFOPATH" "/usr/local/info:/opt/gnu/info:/software/fweb-1.62/info")

I get:
Info-directory-list's value is 
("/software/ispell-3.1.20/info" "/usr/local/info" "/opt/gnu/info" "/software/fweb-1.62/info")
so this doesn't work.  But at least I can set up the path, thanks...

Sven
