[Eliminating bbdb-info] FWIW, my views are:
- that stuff in the doc about "only recognizes newline" is left over from many, many years ago (the original Elisp texinfo-format-buffer, looks like to me). I'll remove or change it. - I think both C and Perl makeinfo have always preserved the CRLF's or LF's as they were in the input, and that seems fine to me. In any case, I don't see that it's our job to canonicalize the input. - It also seems to me that it's not our job to support any eol convention on any system, e.g., CRLF files on Unix. If someone makes a CRLF file, then it seems reasonable to me to ask them to use a CRLF install-info. That is, I assume i-i on Windows does read CRLF files. I've never tried it. k
