Great, but I would still want Info+ to be able to easily test, using Lisp, which is being used in the current Info buffer: `...' or '...'. As I mentioned, it is a lot better to try to fontify just the proper pattern, rather than to try to fontify both possibilities at the same time, just in case. Such highlighting is never failsafe anyway (it can be thrown off by a solitary quote symbol etc.), and if a regexp tries to match both patterns at the same time then that just increases the likelihood of doing the wrong thing. > Also: in a standard Emacs tarball the builder shouldn't ever run > makeinfo, as the info files should all be prebuilt and up-to-date. > Can your info+.el user please also investigate why that didn't > work for them? So you are saying that if he got Emacs from a "standard tarball" then '...' is the fault of the builder of that standard tarball. Which would be whom? I can try to find out where he got the Info files. I don't think he built them himself, but I have asked him and hope to hear back.
