Re: Possible problem in Texinfo manual in Info

[Karl Berry]

    press space to go from section "12.1.3: '@listoffloats': Tables of
    Contents for Floats" to the next section, it returns back to 12.1.1
    instead of going to 12.2: Inserting images, which is the next
    node. I also tried in the plain GNU info but it had the same
    problem.

Thanks for the report.  It is just doing what it is told.  That output
happens because the input has a real @listoffloats command, whose output
in Info is a real menu, which gives a reference to a real figure (that
is a couple of sections earlier).  The output from TeX looks quite
different, the HTML output contains a link
(http://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/manual/texinfo/html_node/_0040listoffloats.html),
etc.

However, I recognize that it's not especially useful for SPC to go back
to the node with that figure when reading along in Info.  Maybe I should
just hardwire the Info output in the manual as text, rather than really
running @listoffloats.  I'll think about it.

Thanks,
Karl
