foo.texi:2: warning, @xref followed by `)'.
@xref is meant for use as a whole sentence, or the start of
one, not in brackets "( )". Perhaps you mean @pxref.
Thanks for the suggestion. I added an additional warning when the
incorrect following character is a ), so that the output now looks like
this:
foo.texi:2: warning: `.' or `,' must follow @xref, not `)'.
foo.texi:2: warning: for cross-references in parentheses, use @pxref.
Hope that will be helpful in the future.
(Texinfo's xref system is soooo confusing. Sigh.)
Best,
