It would be quite a lot of work to implement this in the stand-alone Info program as the later history isn't saved when going back in the history. Possible to do of course, but I for one have never missed this feature in info. I checked and 'r' goes forwards in the Emacs Info mode too. I agree that 'r' to select a cross-reference would likely be a rarely used command in Info. > Also '?' does not have the same > meaning, it should be 'h' in info.js to be the same as in info. It's 'H' not 'h' in info that loads the help. 'h' loads the tutorial. I don't see why 'H' couldn't load the help in info.js too. > I think that it would be better in general to add he possibility from > info.js to info, for instance the possibility to go forward in history > in info and use the same key in both (possibly changing a not widely > used key in info). > > > As a side note, I tested info.js and it seems to me that it implements > most if not all of the usefull features of info. > > -- > Pat
