but then, I've checked:
This is the current default of what
makeinfo --html --no-split --css-include=$(srcdir)/Rman.css -D
UseExternalXrefs -I$(srcdir) R-FAQ.texi -o R-FAQ.html
delivers (and that's what we end up using in <Rsources>/doc/manual/ ).
I'm updating the posting guide.
Thank you, Gabor, for the initial "heads up"!
