+This is the file .../info/dir, which contains the topmost node of the Info
+hierarchy.  The first time you invoke Info you start off looking at that node,
+which is (dir)Top.
+
+Rather than adding new nodes to this directory (and this file) it is a better
+idea to put them in a site-local directory, and then configure info to search
+in that directory as well.  That way, you won't have to re-edit this file when
+a new release of the editor comes out.
+
+For example, you could add this code to .../lisp/site-start.el, which is
+loaded before ~/.emacs each time the editor starts up:
+
+  ;; find local info nodes
+  (setq Info-directory-list
+        (append Info-directory-list '("/private/info/")))
+
+Then, when you enter info, a dir file like this one will be automatically
+created and saved (provided you have write access to the directory).  The
+contents of that file "/private/info/dir" will be appended to the contents of
+this file.
