FYI ... after some discussions with Ben, I've just defined these new
commands in texinfo.tex and makeinfo. If any comments, let me know.
(And if anyone knows what to do with them in Docbook, or how to handle
@clickstyle in TexinfoXML, ditto.)
Thanks,
Karl
File: texinfo, Node: Click Sequences
14.13 Click Sequences
=====================
When documenting graphical interfaces, it is necessary to describe
sequences such as `Click on `File', then choose `Open', then ...'.
Texinfo offers commands [EMAIL PROTECTED]' and `click' to represent this,
typically used like this:
... @clicksequence{File @click{} Open} ...
which produces:
... File -> Open ...
The [EMAIL PROTECTED]' command produces a simple right arrow (`->' in Info) by
default; this glyph is also available independently via the command
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'.
You can change the glyph produced by [EMAIL PROTECTED]' with the command
[EMAIL PROTECTED]', which takes a command name as its single argument on the
rest of the line, much like [EMAIL PROTECTED]' and friends (*note [EMAIL
PROTECTED]':
itemize.). The command should produce a glyph, and the usual empty
braces `{}' are omitted. Here's an example:
@clickstyle @result
... @clicksequence{File @click{} Open} ...
now produces:
... File => Open ...
