I thought a bit about whether the remaining of the menus should be in code_style or not, but I don't have a definitive answer. The fact that the user should be assured that his formatting is conserved would tend to having everything in code_style. In the manual there is "Space characters in a menu are preserved as-is; this allows you to format the menu as you wish." However in some formats (html, xml) it may be desirable not to keep the spaces as is and lose some user formatting. So, my current thought about it is: * if the spaces are conserved, format all the menu in code_style if possible * otherwise there is no rule I think that in xml it should be in code_style in menus, and also in info, but not necessarily in html. It seems to me that therse rules should also be followed in menu comment lines, although it is not always easy to know when one is in a menu comment, especially when there are some block formats in menu descriptions or in menu comments. -- Pat
