This file contains the short documentation string of all the functions 
available in this version of dumped GNU Emacs. It is usually found in 
/usr/local/share/emacs/<version>/etc, i.e., /usr/local/share/emacs/24.3.50/etc. 
Since GNU Emacs is a developing version you just need to invoke

        sudo make install

and the DOC file appear in the proper spot! (A copy exists as <path to the GNU 
Emacs 24.3.50 sources>/etc/DOC, if there is no <path to the GNU Emacs 24.3.50 
sources>/etc/DOC-24.3.50.1 file. If none of them exists, then either just 
'make' again or update with bzr etc.)
