Hello!

    Answering to all in one. I may rearange my plist but without 
success. I use INFO= inside Makefile which automaticaly adds some code 
to the end of plist, so @cwd %%CWD_TRICK%% should be the last line of 
the file (or info installation fails). Yes, I may install info files 
myself, but this is not recommended for the time present. Am I wrong?
