Inserting something in info mode should just signal an error ("Buffer is read-only"). The typical use case is: - Navigate to the manual node in question - Go (back) to the other buffer (mail buffer, ...) where you want to place the reference. - Do `M-x rs-info-insert-current-node RET' > or > M-x rs-info-goto-node-string > Just shows no-match while inside info. `rs-info-goto-node-string' is a variable, not a command.
