That much we all agree on. Doesn't Emacs do that now? I thought it did. No, it does not -- not in the Dir file. This is one of the problems. In the Dir file, when point is in a description, and you press RET, Emacs does not visit the Info file, but returns an error message that says: Info-next-preorder: No more nodes (The command that RET invokes is `Info-follow-nearest-node'.) However, when point is at the beginning of a menu line (just before the asterisk) or when point is within the name of the menu item, and you press RET, then Emacs does visit the Info file. On the other hand, within a document, whenever point is anywhere on a menu entry line, even when it is a description, then when you press RET, Emacs visits the appropriate node. -- Robert J.
