Yes, it has numbers. Like I said it was in Hamm for sure (1998) probably until Woody (2002). And then something has happened and numbers became useless asterisks. You can note that 0-9 keys still work (but probably wrong). In case you didn't notice each page has unique address, like "9.2 Specifying a Location", so you could quickly get into it by typing 92. Now it is buggy (for GDB manual) as 9 gets you to page 8. I always used 353 to quickly get into "3.5.3 Shell Parameter Expansion" for Bash. Now I can't do it because I don't remember this combination. > > As for losing the underlining, I think this will do it: > > M-x set-variable RET link-style nounderline RET > > You can make this the default by editing your .infokey file, as > described in the "Custom Key Bindings" node of the manual. > -- All the best, Aleksey Midenkov @midenok
