This is really cool. Thanks.

At first glance, it looks great!  I will send you privately
links to copies of the manual formatted before and after.

I will wait until the next texinfo release before actually switching
the manual over. I like to use released tools for my infrastructure.

This is really lovely - thanks everyone!  Texinfo has gradually evolved
over the years to a rich enough language that I can use it for
publishing; this was the last item on my wishlist!

Thanks,

Arnold
