Message-ID: <E19EqN1-0002Zr-00@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)

I think this is a real bug; if the i command can't find an index, it
should signal an error before reading an argument.

Would someone like to fix it?

In Info I'm looking at

and I hit i, Info-index.
Well, I am prompted and dutifully fill in the minibuffer, and
Ahahaha sucker, "No Index".
Why can't it just tell me up front instead of pulling the spiteful 3
shell game, as it can easily check before prompting me.
