GNU Coding Standards

This should be fairly obvious, but the basic document describing a tree of GNU software is the GNU Coding Standards (`standards.texi').

Cygnus maintains an additional standard Makefile target:

`install-info'

Install all Info files into `$(infodir)', and run the program to update the `info.dir' file. This last program currently (04/13/1993) doesn't exist.

In addition to this additional target, the optional targets `check' and `installcheck' are required for every package in the tree.
