RE: @raggedright command

VERSION: makeinfo 5.2 (built from source on Fedora 20 x86_64)

BUG:

According to the documentation, the @raggedright command _does not apply to info and HTML output,_obviously because the command applies only to output formats that can produce 'justified' text. The 'info' output correctly processes the paragraph as ordinary paragraph text. Note however, that for some reason, _the HTML converter produces no output for the paragraph_. Below is my test:


@subheading The '@@raggedright' Command

This command applies only to output formats that can 'justify' i.e.spread text to fill the line. Text is left-justified (indented ifspecified), but leaving the right margin ragged.

@@raggedright @emph{does not} apply to 'info' and HTML output,

where text should be written as ordinary paragraph text.

@quotation

PLEASE NOTE: The paragraph below is not present at all in the HTML output.

@end quotation

@raggedright

When I left home for the first time, I took with me all the treasures of a

magical youth: three toy soldiers, a bag of cat's-eye marbles, my dad's Scout

knife, a clean handkerchief, $3.73 and my teddybear, Beathan.
