[h-e-w] bbdb INSTALL (english->elisp translation)

User-agent: Gnus/5.09 (Gnus v5.9.0) Emacs/21.1

The following text appears in the bbdb-2.32/INSTALL file.  My babyl
fish isn't working.  What's the elisp incantation for this?

>        a) In-place.
>             i)   Follow steps 1 and 2
Done!  No elisp required.  :-)


>             ii)  Add the lisp subdirectory to the Emacs load-path

;;; I've got this one!
(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "~/bbdb-2.32/lisp"))


>             iii) Add the tex subdirectory to the TeX
>                  search path (can be done by adding the complete path
>                  to the tex subdirectory to the environment variable
>                  TEXINPUTS)

; What goes here?--\     I'm assuming this is OK. --\
;                  |                                |
;                  V                                V
(add-to-list    'XXXXXXXXXX (expand-file-name "~/bbdb-2.32/tex"))

I guess I could do, but it doesn't feel right:
(setenv "TEXINPUTS" (expand-file-name "~/bbdb-2.32/tex"))


>             iv)  Add the texinfo directory to the Info search path.

; What goes here?--\     I'm assuming this is OK. --\
;                  |                                |
;                  V                                V
(add-to-list    'XXXXXXXXXX (expand-file-name "~/bbdb-2.32/texinfo"))


Thanks,
Michael

P.S.  How can I get these answers folded back into the documentation
for future generations?
