When we refer you to some topic in the Emacs manual, you can read this manual node inside Emacs by typing C-h i m emacs RET m topic RET.
This invokes Info, the GNU hypertext documentation browser. If you don’t already know how to use Info, type ? from within Info.
If we refer to topic:subtopic, type C-h i m emacs RET m topic RET m subtopic RET.
(If these commands don’t work as expected, your system may be missing the Info files, or they may not be installed properly.)
If you are reading this FAQ in Info, you can simply press RET on a reference to follow it.
See How do I get a printed copy of the Emacs manual?, if you would like a paper copy of the Emacs manual.
