A few times I have struggled to find the documentation of some
Texinfo commands (like @w, or @c) because there isn't an index entry
I implemented a consistency check for @findex vs. the command list in
doc/texinfo/refcard/txicmdcheck and added a number of index entries as a
result. Most were simple omissions. I'm not sure that having every
single @def...x command as an index entry is really helpful, but I added
them anyway for completeness.
which is the command name exactly. (Pressing ic<ret> in the info
browser takes you to the node "Printing Indices and Menus".)
Well, this seems like a separate issue. Because there are many (30 or
so) index entries besides the previously-discussed @c and @w where the
manual intentionally has some explanatory text. For example:
@findex H @r{Hungarian umlaut accent}
And when I type iH<TAB> in the standalone Info browser (from dev
sources), that entry appears first in the list. But when I hit RET, it
goes to the "@- @hyphenation" node. I don't know why, but it doesn't
seem right. I couldn't easily check current Emacs Info behavior at the
moment.
In any case, I don't want to delete all those glosses, since I think
they are useful information for readers. Seems like the tools should be
able to deal.
