Hi Akim,
There is a problem with characters such as &, % etc.: they are not
accepted as are by TeX, but the \ is not stripped by makeinfo:
Depends on how you define `problem' :). I think the manual describes
this situation accurately --
1) makeinfo does not interpret the arg to @math at all, it just
reproduces what is there. It can't strip \'s in general because what
if the arg was @math{foo \ bar} for a \ math operator? (One of many
possibilities.)
2) texinfo.tex interprets the arg to @math as plain TeX (@tex), so that
actual math can be typeset without horrible pain (this was a change
in 4.something from the original way @math worked, which was of
minimal value). Thus the error from TeX for a bare &.
I'm open to suggestions for how to improve this, but I can't see it
happening for 4.3.
Thanks,
karl
