This has been sitting around in my patch queue for a while, and Iʼd
like to get it in so I can also get the manual update into the texinfo
project. I think Iʼve addressed all the comments from the last time
around.

Robert

Thanks, I think this command will be useful.

I understand that the corresponding update to the Texinfo manual will
be submitted to the Texinfo maintainers?  If so, the NEWS entry should
be marked with "+++", I think.

Is Emacs smart enough not to highlight these as links?

> +   ;; parenthesis

@pxref is also good inside parentheses, not just after the opening
paren.  Can this command be smarter and support also cases like

  (bla-bla yak-yak @pxref{foo})

?

> +   ;; beginning of sentence
> +   ((looking-back (sentence-end) (point-at-bol 0))

What about BOB?  Can we produce @xref there as well?

Yes and yes.

You mean in (describe-function 'texinfo-insert-dwim-@ref)? They show
up unadorned.

Yes, thatʼs possible. Iʼve limited the opening parenthesis to being on
the same or previous line though (I donʼt want excessive backwards
matching).

Yes.

Revised version attached.
