There are several subdirectories:
-`src' holds the C code for Emacs (the Emacs Lisp interpreter and its
- primitives, the redisplay code, and some basic editing functions).
-`lisp' holds the Emacs Lisp code for Emacs (most everything else).
-`lib-src' holds the source code for some utility programs for use by
- or with Emacs, like movemail and etags.
-`etc' holds miscellaneous architecture-independent data files
- Emacs uses, like the tutorial text and the Zippy the Pinhead quote
- database. The contents of the `lisp', `info', `man', and `lispref'
- subdirectories are architecture-independent too.
-
-`info' holds the Info documentation tree for Emacs.
-`man' holds the source code for the Emacs Manual. If you modify the
- manual sources, you will need the `makeinfo' program to produce
- an updated manual. `makeinfo' is part of the GNU Texinfo
- package; you need version 4.0 or later of Texinfo.
-`lispref' holds the source code for the Emacs Lisp reference manual.
