which pattern are you referring to? my problem is that if the
copyright is visible from info, then it appears twice in the printed
version. is this `working fine'? also, i assume i'm misunderstanding
the detailed instructions for texinfo, since, clearly, this step is
pretty important and a lot of attention has been given to documenting
it. but i'm stuck. :)
