My suggestion is to compare the original HTML files produced by makeinfo with the massaged files on the GNU Software site, and try guessing from the diffs what that code is trying to do. My hope is that any HTML expert (which I am not) will have a good guess by looking at the diffs (and possibly also at how the results of processing are shown in a browser, as compared to the original HTML files produced by makeinfo). If and when we understand the rationale for that code, and you can suggest how to achieve the same with texi2any customizations, I can assure you that we in the Emacs maintenance will enthusiastically consider switching to those customizations. (My point of improving the Texinfo documentation for these aspects still stands, though.) Thanks. </pre> </div> <div class="msgButtons margintopdouble"> <ul class="overflow"> <li class="msgButtonItems"><a class="button buttonleft " accesskey="p" href="msg03249.html">Previous
