!!! wow, I didn't think this was allowed.
I can't remember the details, but I wrote this section in
Sept 2008 and I think I just tried it and found it worked.
Was this around the time you took your sabbatical from LP?
Maybe that's why you didn't notice?
I think Graham meant "I didn't think this was possible".
Yes... although I don't read Trevor's email as suggesting that he
thought that I thought it was not possible.
(I _think_ I wrote that correctly...)
Anyway, what does the texinfo manual say about @-commands in node
names? Could you look this up, James?
http://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/manual/texinfo/texinfo.html#Node-Line-Requirements
I think this bit is what you are after:
--snip--
@-commands in node names are not allowed. This includes punctuation
characters that are escaped with a �...@’, such as @ and {, and accent
commands such as ‘@'’. (For a few cases when this is useful, Texinfo has
limited support for using @-commands in node names; see Pointer
Validation.) Perhaps this limitation will be removed some day.
Unfortunately, you cannot use periods, commas, colons or parentheses
within a node name; these confuse the Texinfo processors. Perhaps this
limitation will be removed some day, too.
For example, the following is a section title in this manual:
@code{@@unnumberedsec}, @code{@@appendixsec}, @code{@@heading}
But the corresponding node name lacks the commas and the @'s:
unnumberedsec appendixsec heading
--snip--
