Vertical Spacing less than @sp 1

2020-10-24 Thread Christopher Dimech
Is it possible to introduce a spacing between two lines of text to be less than '@sp 1' or '@*', perhaps by half. When I am writing a list or enumeration using @* look as too much of a vertical space. @enumerate ---@item -Line Text 1 -@item -Line Text 2 @sp 0.5 ---@item -Line

You are correct, it works. Missed the \setnormaldispenv in \envdef\verbatim. > Sent: Saturday, October 24, 2020 at 3:31 PM > From: "Gavin Smith" > To: "Christopher Dimech" > Cc: "help-texinfo gnu" > Subject: Re: @smallverbatim > > On Sat, Oct 24, 2020 at 03:16:44PM +0200, Christopher Dimech

Yes, I confirm they are good and approve them being set by dafault. Do you mean I simply call @quotation rather than @smallquotation. It certainly makes things easier. Almost always I use @smallbook, and even for @smallbook, the small versions are also better. Can you see if they can be used

Was not a request for consistency. I find the @small versions more useful because the customary one makes the text too big. For instance, a quotation is much better when using @smallquotation. I needed to use verbatim as it does not expand commands, but needed the small version. > Sent:

Dear Gavin, Have now tested your modification of texinfo.tex to remove the page number and if works. I also put the page number as a superscript. It is easy to do, and independently of whether customary or not, it does solve particular problems if you could be so kind to put the options to do
