Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org mailing list. Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug and the precise symptoms of the bug: This is arguably a feature request, but it seems so glaring that you might consider it a bug. If I'm in an xterm and type `info dbus' I get a nice info session about emacs/dbus integration. But there doesn't seem to be any way to visit the same page from within emacs using info-mode other than `M-: (info "dbus")'. This seems needlessly inconvenient. `C-u M-x info dbus ' ought to get me to the same node if there's no info file named "dbus" in the current working directory. Also, there should be some syntax to disambiguate: `C-u M-x info :dbus ' maybe Thanks and regards, Dave If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger, please include the output from the following gdb commands: `bt full' and `xbacktrace'. If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file /usr/local/share/emacs/23.0.60/etc/DEBUG for instructions.
