Dear Karl!
You remember when we tracked down the
page-numbers-in-table-of-contents-are-wrong bug, you fixed it in
texinfo.tex and advised me to include the current texinfo.tex, as it
will not break other things.
Well it did apparently, maybe you can help me here:
I took the follwoing input file which was reduced from a real world
example until it was more or less minimal:
\input texinfo
@set emacs
@ifclear emacs
@ifclear xemacs
@set emacs
@end ifclear
@end ifclear
@bye
With version 2006-01-27.14 I get:
Runaway argument?
@end address@hidden
! File ended while scanning use of @next.
<inserted text>
@par
<*> .../norbert/bla/tramp-2.0.52/texi/new/foo.texi
I suspect you have forgotten a `}', causing me
to read past where you wanted me to stop.
I'll try to recover; but if the error is serious,
you'd better type `E' or `X' now and fix your file.
! Emergency stop.
<*> .../norbert/bla/tramp-2.0.52/texi/new/foo.texi
*** (job aborted, no legal \end found)
While with 2004-11-25.16 I get no page of output and no error.
In fact the file was much longer, and did have many more stuff, and the
initial @set emacs was included via a -t "@set emacs" line.
Could you explain this?
Best wishes
Norbert

ARAGLIN (n. archaic)
A medieval practical joke played by young squires on a knight aspirant
the afternoon he is due to start his vigil. As the knight arrives at
the castle the squires attempt to raise the drawbridge very suddenly
as the knight and his charger step on to it.
