If not, see . ;;; Commentary: ;; This is some simple checking of external cross references in info files, ;; docstrings and custom-links by attempting to visit the nodes specified. ;; ;; `M-x info-xref-check' checks a single info file. See the docstring for ;; details. ;; ;; `M-x info-xref-check-all' checks all info files in Info-directory-list. ;; This is a good way to check the consistency of the whole system. ;; ;; `M-x info-xref-check-all-custom' loads up all defcustom variables and ;; checks any info references in them. ;; ;; `M-x info-xref-docstrings' checks docstring "Info node ..." hyperlinks in ;; source files (and other files). ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ;; This library provides links of symbols (functions, variables, ;; faces) within Emacs' Info viewer to their builtin help ;; documentation. This linking is done, when the symbol names in ;; texinfo documentations (like the Emacs- and Elisp manual) are ;; 1. Quoted symbol names like `quoted-symbol' or: ;; 2. Function names are prefixed by M-x, for example M-x ;; function-name or are quoted and prefixed like `M-x function-name'. ;; 3. Function names appearing behind the following forms, which ;; occur, for example, in the Elisp manual: ;; -- Special Form: function-name ;; -- Command: ;; -- Function: ;; -- Macro: ;; 4. And variables names behind the following text: ;; -- User Option: variable-name ;; -- Variable: ;; In any case all symbol names must be known to Emacs, i.e. their ;; names are found in the variable `obarray'. ;; You can follow the additional links with the usual Info ;; keybindings. The customisation variable ;; `mouse-1-click-follows-link' is influencing the clicking behavior ;; (and the tooltips) of the links, the variable's default is 450 ;; (milli seconds) setting it to nil means only clicking with mouse-2 ;; is following the link (hint: Drew Adams). ;; The link color of symbols - referencing their builtin documentation ;; - is distinct from links which are referencing further Info ;; documentation. ;; Inform is checking if the Info documents are relevant Elisp and ;; Emacs related files to avoid false positives. Please see the ;; customization variable `inform-none-emacs-or-elisp-documents'. ;; The code uses mostly mechanisms from Emacs' lisp/help-mode.el file. ;;; Change Log: ;; 1.3: ;; Inform is checking if the Info documents are relevant Elisp and ;; Emacs related files to avoid false positives. ;; 1.2: ;; Link Elisp descriptions of symbols to their help documentation, ;; like the following function example: -- Function: eval form ;; Distinguish color of texinfo links (`link' type) and Help links ;; (`font-lock-function-name-face') ;;; TODO: ;; Currently inconsistent link colors to help buffers: In *info* ;; different as in *Help* buffers! ;; Check the application `inform-xref-symbol-regexp' for additional ;; symbol prefixes without quoting of symbol-names ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ;; Does the following belong to customize.el? ;; Generalise linking to "customization buffers" for the "easy ;; customization" info documentation see also the customization ;; section in the elisp manual ;; - distinguish the Customization-links from Help- and Info-links ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ;;; Ideas: ;; Link the help buffers back to higher level info manual subjects, ;; similar to help-fns+.el from Drew Adams. ;; Twice clicking or RETurning removes *Help* buffer (idea: Drew ;; Adams) ;; Different colors for different symbol types (idea: Drew Adams) see ;; package helpful and info+ / info-colors on Melpa and see ;; font-lock.el for common faces. ;; - Do we need to indicate an already visited Help link with a ;; different color? ;; - Would it be be good to overtake all colors of package ;; "info-colors"? ;; - Do we need to distinguish the link FONTS?
