Hi,
I just did "info libc", then "s opendir (".
It used to work (texinfo-4.12), but now I get
regexp error: Unmatched ( or \(
which is no problem. I can adapt, of course.
However, I also got so many "BELL" (flash-screen)
alerts that my window flashed for so long that I
thought it was stuck in an infinite loop or printing
garbage, so I interrupted it quickly. But I was
too impatient. If I let it run its course, it stops
after about 5 seconds of screen flashing.
BTW, this is with
$ ./ginfo --version
info (GNU texinfo) 4.13
built from the tarball on an x86_64 F10.
