I have committed the following change: Index: plplotdoc.xml.in =================================================================== --- plplotdoc.xml.in (revision 7740) +++ plplotdoc.xml.in (working copy) @@ -238,6 +238,13 @@ <book id="plplot-docbook"> <bookinfo> <title>The PLplot Plotting Library</title> + <titleabbrev role="texinfo-file">plplotdoc</titleabbrev> + <abstract role="texinfo-node"> + <para>The PLplot Plotting Library</para> + </abstract> + <subjectset scheme="texinfo-directory"> + <subject><subjectterm>Scientific Visualization</subjectterm></subject> + </subjectset> <abbrev>DocBook</abbrev> <subtitle>Programmer's Reference Manual</subtitle> <releaseinfo>Version 5.0</releaseinfo> i.e., your patch with the overall title left as is. But I am not getting the menu entry * The PLplot Plotting Library: (plplotdoc). The PLplot Plotting Library that is expected from your above notes. Instead, when I execute "info plplotdoc.info" the detailed node listing under Introduction is as follows: * The PLplot Plotting Library:: * Getting a Copy of the PLplot Package:: ... Am I looking in the wrong place in the menu or is this the right place, but my old software is producing a simplified menu result? Please check this commit (and the prior one) to make sure at least the filename aspect of it finally works for you. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
