There is room for improvement in this regard. 1. To start with, see http://emacs.stackexchange.com/a/31679/105. In the Info manual, please provide more and better index entries for this node. A user should be able to find it using `i menu TAB'. 2. Using `i menu TAB' you can get to node `Menus and the =E2=80=98m=E2=80= =99 command' (which should be named `Menus and the =E2=80=98m=E2=80=99 Command'= ). But from that node you cannot get to node ``1'-`9' choose a menu subtopic by its number'. Each of these nodes should have a cross-reference to the other. The first of these nodes purports to be the main node about menus. It should link to other nodes that talk about using menus. 3. The index entry `select N=E2=80=99th menu item' should use "Nth", not "N=E2=80=99th". 4. This node name, and some other node names in the manual, should use title case, not sentence case. E.g. `1'-`9' Choose a Menu Subtopic By its Number". (That title is anyway not so good. Put the 1-9 at the end, and remove the quotes.) The menu item for this node in its parent menu should likewise be "Choose Menu Subtopic", not "Choose menu subtopic", and "Create Info buffer" in that menu should be "Create Info Buffer".
