Using latest texinfo.tex, TeX barfs on LilyPond learning manual in English. Here's the relevant part of the log: ./lilypond-learning.cps:12: Missing number, treated as zero. <to be read again> \char '...sname \relax '\else \char '15 \fi \else \char '15 \fi <argument> \xeatspaces {\char ' 15 } \tclose ...on \rawbackslash \plainfrenchspacing #1 }\null \codex #1->\tclose {#1} \endgroup l.12 \entry {\code {\xeatspaces {\char '15 }} }{13} A number should have been here; I inserted `0'. (If you can't figure out why I needed to see a number, look up `weird error' in the index to The TeXbook.) ... and here are the first lines of lilypond-learning.cps: \initial {!} \entry {\code {\xeatspaces {!}}}{21} \initial {#} \entry {\code {\xeatspaces {#}}}{173} \entry {\code {\xeatspaces {##f}}}{173} \entry {\code {\xeatspaces {##t}}}{173} \entry {\code {\xeatspaces {#'symbol}}}{174} \initial {%} \entry {\code {\xeatspaces {%}}}{16} \entry {\code {\xeatspaces {%{\tt \char 123} ... %{\tt \char 125}}}}{16} \initial {'} \entry {\code {\xeatspaces {\char '15 }}}{13} \initial {(} \entry {\code {\xeatspaces {( ... )}}}{19} If this isn't enough to investigate and fix this, let me know and I'll try to provide a minimal Texinfo source that reproduces this. Best, John
