Subject: bug#16439: [feature request] Highlighting of strings within Info buffers
Date: Tue, 14 Jan 2014 15:34:29 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1394187.cuqsIWxxGs@descartes> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <86lhyic1ik.fsf@somewhere.org>

Hello,
that feature looks very useful to me.  I've just seen that info+ is developed 
by Drew Adams (I took the liberty to CC him).  Maybe he is willing to move 
info+ to GNU ELPA for now and after the feature freeze we could consider 
moving it or parts of it to Info mode.

Regards,
Rüdiger
