Bob, thanks for the report. The current version of m4 (1.4.4) does have an updated address for reporting bugs in the README, [EMAIL PROTECTED]
As for the Emacs reference, cross-manual references in HTML output from Texinfo manuals are something not completely worked out at this point. What's needed is some configuration file to allow specifying what to do with them. I've had some discussion about this, but haven't implemented anything yet. I don't think the m4 manual really needs to do anything at this point, unless you folks feel like going to the extraordinary measure of postprocessing the HTML output with a sed/perl/whatever script to fix the href. Best, Karl (Texinfo maintainer, supposedly :) Date: Fri, 19 May 2006 20:43:42 -0300 From: Bob Badour <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: documentation error in m4 online help In the section on regular expressions, the link to the emacs documentation for the regular expression syntax is bad. Where you have the relative url in the href at <a href="emacs.html#Regexps">Syntax of Regular Expressions</a> You need to have the absolute url http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/emacs.html#Regexps instead: <a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/emacs.html#Regexps";>Syntax of Regular Expressions</a> Currently, it link gets a 404 trying to load a page at http://www.gnu.org/software/m4/manual/emacs.html#Regexps P.S. The published email address for reporting bugs is no longer valid: This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.
