(I got the same "Undefined control sequence." error in TeX, whereas it worked perfectly in LaTeX.) Texinfo uses TeX, not LaTeX. However, according to the Texinfo manual, it should have worked regardless. I believe that the fact that it did not work is a bug in Texinfo (unless I am misunderstanding something). Sincerely, Luc.
