Dear emacs developers,

when I do a `make docs' the generated info files do not contain
`' -quotes any more but '' -quotes.

This breaks e.g. info+ fontification (a very helpful feature).

Reason is makeinfo >=5 produces either single straight quotes for
info files or single curly ones, depending on the document
encoding:

(from makeinfo maunal:)
   'OPEN_QUOTE_SYMBOL'
        When an opening quote is needed, e.g., for '@samp' output, use the
        specified character; default '‘' for HTML, '‘' for
        Docbook.  For Info, the default depends on the enabled document
        encoding (*note @documentencoding::); if no document encoding
        is set, or the encoding is US-ASCII, etc., ''' is used.
        This character usually appears as an undirected single quote
        on modern systems.  If the document encoding is Unicode, the
        Info output uses a Unicode left quote.
   [...]


(from makeinfo maunal:)     
   17.2 '@documentencoding ENC': Set Input Encoding
   ================================================
   
   The '@documentencoding' command declares the input document encoding.
   Write it on a line by itself, with a valid encoding specification
   following, near the beginning of the file but after '@setfilename'
   (*note @setfilename::):
   
        @documentencoding ENC
   
     At present, Texinfo supports only these encodings:
   
   'US-ASCII'
        This has no particular effect, but it's included for completeness.
   
   'UTF-8'
        The vast global character encoding, expressed in 8-bit bytes.
   
   'ISO-8859-2'
   'ISO-8859-1'
   'ISO-8859-15'
   [...]
     



Searching texinfos mailing list archives showed that this was
discussed roughly two years before and that it is the result of a
decision to go the same way as the rest of the world which
interprets ` as grave accent:

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.tex.texinfo.bugs/5526/match=single+quotes :

|> For the record, RFC20 says the meaning of character 0x60 is
|> EITHER "grave accent" OR "opening single quotation mark".  It
|> then says this character ".. should not be used without
|> determining that there is agreement between sender and recipient"


I think it's highly desirable to be able to tell beginning and
closing of enclosing characters apart.  Therefore I consider the
info files single straight quotes a bug.  I assume there is a way
to produce `' quotations with modern makeinfo or the *.texi files
should have @documentencoding directives which produce single
curly quotes.


Thanks for your attention, Gregor

I think the Emacs manuals should use whatever Texinfo produces by default.
If that is '' rather than `', so be it. The place to argue for a change
would be the Texinfo list, but it sounds like that ship sailed.

Emacs Dev has nothing to say about the format used for Info?  Interesting.

Too bad, truly.

Emacs has a long tradition of font-locking `...' in doc strings.  Why?
The reason for that (readability) is an even stronger argument for doing
the same for Info, where it matters even more.

And that would have been a good argument for Texinfo to keep the `...'
syntax for Info.  Alas, Emacs Dev has never wanted to highlight `...'
in Info (even as a user option, and even though patches were available).

Again, too bad.  Poor Emacs.

[This is like changing Lisp to use )lambda )var) )1+ )foo 42 var))) or XML
to use >foo>.  Good candidates for an April Fool's joke; nothing more.]

Apparently the problem is that some of Emacs's .texi files
contain @documentencoding directives and generate curly quotes,
while others don't and generate straight quotes.  It's better to
be consistent, and curly quotes seem more useful, so I installed
a patch to do that as trunk bzr 115807.  I assume this fixes the
bug and so am closing this bug report; if it's not fixed please
let me know.

Could you possibly stop talking like such a pompous jackass?

There is no such thing as "Emacs Dev". There are just people, with
differing opinions, doing work, for free.

My opinion is that the Texinfo maintainers are the people who decide
what Info documents look like.

Curly opening and closing quotes are certainly better than having
the same kind of quote char for both opening and closing.  Thx.

Very sorry, but I reverted that commit: it screws up anyone who wants
to read the docs on a text terminal that doesn't support UTF-8.  At
best, you see something like

  Hash notation cannot be read at all, so the Lisp reader signals the
  error \u2018invalid-read-syntax\u2019 whenever it encounters \u2018#<\u2019.

At worst, you see this kind of gibberish:

     In most cases, an objectΓאשs printed representation is also a read
  syntax for the object.  However, some types have no read syntax, since
  it does not make sense to enter objects of these types as constants in a
  Lisp program.  These objects are printed in "hash notation", which
  consists of the characters Γאר#<Γאש, a descriptive string (typically the
  type name followed by the name of the object), and a closing Γאר>Γאש.  For
  example:

       (current-buffer)
	    Γחע #<buffer objects.texi>

I'm sorry, we cannot possibly distribute documentation that looks like
this in some locales.  For Emacs Info reader, we could perhaps fix
that by using a display table, but there's no such solution available
for the stand-alone Info reader that is part of Texinfo.

This change should have never been committed without a discussion,
certainly not during a feature freeze.

Of course, before this commit, we already had such a problem in
several files, which started using UTF-8 encoding since the last
March.  But that, too, was never discussed AFAIR, and its effect on
@code, @samp, etc. markup, as well as on ``..'' quoted text, was never
mentioned.  (These effects are barely documented in the Texinfo
manual, so it was easy to miss the meaning of those changes.  I
submitted a bug report to Texinfo maintainers about this documentation
deficiency.)

So now we are left with a few files that still specify UTF-8, and
still screw up text-mode Info readers in some locales.  Those files
were using Latin-1 before the changes in March 2013, which allowed us
to display a few non-ASCII words in Latin locales, but still have the
quotes and markup legible in all locales.

So, unless someone has a better idea, I will in a day or two revert
those files back to Latin-1.  This will not be optimal, since names of
some people (I counted 4) mentioned in at least one of those files
cannot be encoded in Latin-1, and so we will need to use the ASCII
imitation offered by Texinfo (as we did before the switch to UTF-8).
But that is IMO a lesser evil than denying legible manuals to various
non-UTF locales.

As for the OP's report: I agree with Glenn that the ship with `..'
quoting in Info sailed a long time ago.  I was against that change in
Texinfo (as was Karl Berry, one of the main Texinfo developers), but
this was voted down, so there's no sense in arguing about that.  If
info+ needs to parse the quoting to highlight marked-up text, it will
have to adapt, sorry.  (Or lobby on the Texinfo list for reverting to
previous behavior.)

I'm going to reopen the bug.

This is too bad, indeed.

I don't understand exactly what Paul did to change (for Emacs) the
first ' in '...' to SINGLE TURNED COMMA QUOTATION MARK, but if he
could do that, couldn't a similar approach be used to change that
first ' back to `, restoring things for Emacs users as they were
before (removing this regression)?

Paul added "@documentencoding utf-8" to sources of all the Info
manuals; the rest was done by makeinfo when it produced the Info
files.

Not by a similar approach, but we could indeed restore old behavior by
customizing makeinfo (the details are in the Texinfo manual, and were
quoted here by the OP).  But we need to agree to that first, and I
very much doubt that such an agreement will be reached, given the GNU
Coding Standards and the general mindset.

Yes we can.  We've been distributing documentation like that for years.
Latin-1 markup (which you're advocating) is not legible in all locales.
It's not legible in Shift-JIS, for example.  And I don't see how Latin-1
markup can work in a text reader in a UTF-8 locale.

> So now we are left with a few files that still specify UTF-8, and

It's not just the few files that specify "@documentencoding UTF-8".
It's several other files that contain UTF-8 characters, files like
dbus.texi.  These files are being mishandled now, because of the revert,
because makeinfo isn't being told what their encoding is.  And the
first of these files that I found, namely dbus.texi, is specifically
talking about multibyte characters in its example, so converting it
to Latin-1 would destroy the point of that example.

I sympathize with the goal of producing .info files portable to
all locales, but this revert is not solving that problem and it is
making matters significantly worse in other areas.  The other change
you're advocating (converting to Latin-1) would be worse yet.

Instead, I suggest undoing the revert, and adding something to
postprocess the info files, to produce ASCII-only info files.
These could be used in locales that don't grok UTF-8.  Doing
this will avoid screwing up the documentation in .html and .pdf
formats.  I'll volunteer to write that.

Yes, but Latin-1 characters are only used in a handful of words (names
of people), so using Latin-1 doesn't hamper users' ability to read the
manual in any way, because the quote characters are not affected.
Only the UTF-8 encoding also affects the quote characters, which are
used a lot in Info.

So Latin-1 is a much lesser evil.

The job is not yet finished, so naturally there are problems we need
to solve.  I've just reverted the situation back to where it was
before, to the point where we should discuss the possible solutions
and choose the best one.

The problem of quotes _is_ solved, in most of the Info files.  Again,
I'm not claiming we should release the files in their present shape.
There's still work to be done, the question is what to do.

I don't see why it would be worse, please elaborate.

Are you suggesting to produce 2 separate sets of Info files?  That
could work, although it will be unusual (I don't think any other
project does that).  But if we go that way, there's no need to
postprocess anything, just run makeinfo again with --disable-encoding
and direct the output to a different place.

If you suggest to have a single set of Info files, then I don't
understand the proposal, or how it would help.

The info reader should really recode the info file into the locale's
encoding on the fly (and info files should always be encoded in UTF-8).
It doesn't make sense any more to use Latin-1.

You mean, the Emacs Info reader?  It already does that on a TTY,
using terminal-coding-system.  But the problem is that these Unicode
quotes cannot be encoded in most (all?) non-UTF encodings.

We could replace those characters via display tables.

But these solutions are only for the Emacs Info reader; the
stand-alone reader doesn't do anything like that, it simply dumps the
bytes to the screen, assuming the text is in the current locale's
encoding.

> It doesn't make sense any more to use Latin-1.

We originally produced ASCII emulations of the non-ASCII characters
used by the names of contributors in ack.texi etc., but then decided
to show them more respect by using Latin.  That's how it all started.

That's what needs to be fixed, not the contents of the info files.

Thanks, that is a good suggestion.
I requested that on bug-texinfo, here:

Most of the non-ASCII words are people's names, but many are not,
and often ASCIIfying these would hurt the manual.
These include symbols (e.g., "¬"), examples of encoding
("@samp{Naïve} is encoded as @samp{=?iso-8859-1?q?Na=EFve?=}"),
calendars ("Bahá'í"), the names of GNU programs ("真 Gnus"),
and configuration examples ("écrit" in email configuration).

Nowadays, on GNUish and POSIXish systems in the Emacs target
audience, there's more usage of UTF-8 than of Latin-1.  On
Ubuntu and Fedora, for example, the default locale for US
English is en_US.utf8.  Hence, converting info files to
Latin-1 would hurt standalone info users in the typical
setup on GNUish and POSIXish platforms.

Perhaps Microsoft Windows users are different, and typically
use Latin-1 or some other unibyte encoding.  If so, then
until standalone 'info' is improved we can support those
users by converting the info files on Windows platforms,
before installing the files.  Perhaps this could be a
configure-time option.  Or, perhaps it's simpler to ask
these folks to use Emacs to read their info files for now.

In any event we shouldn't convert the manual source to
Latin-1; not only would this lose information, it would hurt
the typical standalone info use case on GNUish systems.

In the short run, we do need to add @documentencoding
directives to the manuals that are already using UTF-8,
since makeinfo is currently mishandling these manuals.
This isn't critical for the plain-ASCII manuals, and we
could defer changes to the plain-ASCII manuals to the next
version of Emacs if necessary, though I expect it's better
to format all the manuals consistently.

I agree that this would be very good indeed.

I don't think we care about encoding of a handful of words, as long as
the bulk of the manual, including markup and quotes, is legible.  I
only mentioned Latin-1 because it seemed to cover most of the
non-ASCII characters.  But I don't insist on it.  Neither do I insist
on a single-byte encoding of those few words and names; in particular,
UTF-8 will do -- but only for the non-ASCII text in the manuals.

It hurts them in a very small number of places, most or all of which
don't affect in any way the ability of the reader to read and
understand the presented material.

As I say above, I won't object to having the non-ASCII words encoded
in UTF-8, as long as it doesn't affect the (single and double) quote
characters, and any other characters/strings (like '#' and '=>') we
use for describing the Emacs and Lisp features.

The problem here is that @documentencoding is virulent when you use
UTF-8: it affects the quotes, not just non-ASCII text in the Texinfo
sources.  This is unlike any other value of @documentencoding.  And
that is the only problem that bothers me, and IMO should bother us
all.

Perhaps a possible solution would be to customize OPEN_QUOTE_SYMBOL
and CLOSE_QUOTE_SYMBOL (although I'm not sure it affects double
quotes), or edit the Info files with Sed to replace Unicode quote
characters with some ASCII characters.  The rest of the non-ASCII text
can be left intact, in UTF-8.

This has nothing to do with Windows; I first hit the problem on a
GNU/Linux machine that was configured with a non-UTF locale.  The
reason I never saw the problem since last March is that I still use
makeinfo from Texinfo 4.13, which doesn't affect the quote characters
when @documentencoding of UTF-8 is specified.  So the Info files I
produce when I build Emacs don't suffer from this misfeature.

Here's a patch that does that.  I'm attaching a file
'info-utf8.diff' that contains this patch combined
with the previous one, for ease of trying it out
against the trunk.

Thanks, but this should be the default, or at least should be used
when producing the release tarball.

I think it's not just a documentation error.  There's no good reason to
link the input document encoding to the kind of symbols used in the output.

I agree.  That's another bug report I suppose I should file with bug-texinfo,
I suppose.

By the way, this isn't something that began with my changes in March,
as Eli suggested earlier.  Emacs 24.3 shipped with some .info files in
UTF-8 and others in Latin-1, which means that in pretty much any locale,
standalone 'info' will misbehave on some Emacs info file or another.
The problem goes back at least to Emacs 23.1 in 2009 (that's as far back
as I cared to check).

This latter bug, too, is fixed by the latest proposed patch.

No, the point is that the release tarball contains UTF-8
info files, and that these are transformed to ASCII for installations
that prefer ASCII info files.  cp-ascii's UTF8-to-ASCII transformation
loses information; we can't ship ASCII info files in the tarball
and then transform those to the UTF-8 originals.

An ASCII default would have been better years ago, but these days
UTF-8 is the typical default encoding in GNUish distributions and
most users will be better off if UTF-8 is the default.

Yes.  Although the makeinfo maintainer doesn't seem to share this view.

That's true, but until Texinfo 5 came and changed the effect of
@documentencoding, this hardly mattered, as the non-ASCII characters
in those few manuals (I found 4) were extremely rare, something like 2
to 5 per manual.

The important thing (to me) is to have the markup, quotes, and arrows
displayable, because that's the bulk of the manual.

But does "make install" really cut that?  How many end users on a
typical Posix platform will build and install their own Emacs?  I
thought the majority installs from ready-to-run packages nowadays, and
in that case "make install" was already run by someone else, with who
knows what configure-time options.

That's because your Sed script goes too far, IMO: it can be limited to
editing only the markup and the => arrows, and leave the other
non-ASCII characters intact.  Then there will be no information loss,
just a different (some will say less pretty) display of that
information.

I agree, when it comes to non-ASCII text.  But I see no reason for
such a strong preference when it comes to the Info markup.  I find
that a purely aesthetic consideration with no real functionality
behind it.  (It can even hurt: e.g., on one of my machines, the
Unicode quotes look pale and not so pretty at all, I guess the font
I'm using is not the best one for those characters.)

To summarize, I see the following possible ways to solve this issue:

  1) Do nothing.  This is a temporary measure at best and doesn't make
     much sense; I mention it here only for completeness.  Sooner or
     later we will have to do something.

  2) Use "@documentencoding ISO-8859-1" in any manual that needs to
     include non-ASCII characters.  This is what we did a year ago,
     although a couple of manuals had utf-8 in them; they can all be
     converted to use Latin-1.  The advantage is that this leaves the
     markup intact; the disadvantage is that most locales will not
     display the non-ASCII text correctly these days.

  3) Install Paul's script, which will be run at "make install" time,
     either by default, or given a configure time option.  (We could
     also make this  "make install" time option.)  If we go this way,
     I think we should leave Unicode characters that are not Info
     markup alone, and not edit them.

  4) Use --disable-encoding switch to makeinfo, again either by
     default or given some non-default option.  This avoids the need
     for a separate Sed script, but has a complication: makeinfo 4.13,
     which I presume is still in use and which we want to support, did
     not emit the 'coding' cookie when --disable-encoding was
     specified.  OTOH, makeinfo 4.13 didn't emit Unicode quotes when
     --enable-encoding was specified.  So if we go this way, we will
     need to detect the makeinfo version and use the right switch.

  5) Add a feature to info.el that will set up a display table for
     Info buffers, and use that display table to display quotes and
     arrows on TTYs that don't support UTF-8.  Then Paul's changes to
     use "@documentencoding utf-8" everywhere can be re-installed with
     no additional changes.  However, unlike all the other
     alternatives, this one solves the problem only for the Emacs Info
     reader, and leaves the problem with the stand-alone Info reader
     to the Texinfo maintainers.

If someone has other suggestions, please raise them.  Otherwise, I
guess it's decision time.

Yes, that's right.  Since GNU/Linux distributors typically
ship UTF-8 locales, the UTF-8 default should work.  If any
distributors want to cater to users in unibyte locales, they
can enable the option to ship ASCIIfied info files in their
packages.  I think few will, but I've been wrong before....

There would still be information loss; we'll lose the
distinction between open and close quote, for example.  The
calc info file will contain "'f''2'3(x,y,z)'", for example.
Sure, a reader can eventually puzzle out which of
those apostrophes is meant to be an open single quote, close
single quote, and apostrophe (there are some of each), but
it's better if the documentation doesn't puzzle the reader.

This is the main argument for using directed quotes in the
Info files, as I see it.  Aesthetics are nice but are
secondary.

That is a fatal objection nowadays.  Another disadvantage is
that some manuals contain non-Latin-1 characters.  We could
rework them ("Latin-1-ify the manuals"), but this is heading in
the wrong direction.

My latest proposed patch causes this to be both a
configure-time option "configure --with-ascii-info" and a
make-time option "make INSTALL_INFO_DATA=build-aux/cp-ascii install".
So this approach is already implemented.

build-aux/cp-ascii cannot reliably distinguish Info-markup
Unicode from other Unicode, so I don't see how to implement
this precisely.  We could implement an approximation, but
why bother?  The point of cp-ascii is to not put mojibake
on unibyte users' screens, so why not fix all the mojibake
while we're at it?

This would lose information in the now-typical case of UTF-8 locales.

This would be a reasonable thing to do.  It can be done
independently of (3).

Here's another option:

   6) install the original patch as-is, i.e., not bother with ASCIIfying
      the info files at all, and ask people to use UTF-8-aware software
      to read info files.  That would be simpler so I'd prefer it, but as
      I understand it Eli really dislikes this approach.  (3) is an acceptable
      compromise.

I suggest installing (3) now, as it fixes known bugs.  We
can implement (5) at our leisure.  (I say "we" but really
mean "not me", as I am no expert at display tables....)

These are very rare (and I would argue will look ugly any way you
typeset them).

Sorry, I don't see the problem: just don't edit any letters, only edit
apostrophes, quotes, and arrows.  What am I missing?

To make it more acceptable to UTF-8 locales.  If we leave the
non-ASCII text alone, we have a higher chance of producing a single
format that will be used both in UTF-8 and non-UTF-8 locales.

Again, I don't see why, unless you refer to that example from Calc.
Otherwise, the only effect of --disable-encoding in Texinfo 5 is not
to produce Unicode characters for quotes and arrows.

They're not that rare: for example, I count 949 info lines
containing both straight and the curly apostrophes, with
many opportunities for confusion.  ‘C-x '’ may look ugly on
some displays, but it's typically legible, and it's
definitely easier to grok than 'C-x ''.  The primary goal
here is conveying information, not beauty.

Info generates lots of special characters like that, in
response to ASCII markup.  From the unibyte reader's point
of view, why should the output of "``", "@quoteleft{}",
"@expansion{}", "@result{}", etc. be converted from mojibake
to ASCII, while the output of "--", "@bullet{}", "@minus{}",
"@equiv{}", "@~n", etc. remains mojibake?  I don't see any
systematic principle to distinguish between the two sets of
characters.

UTF-8 locales work just fine (actually, better) with the
original UTF-8 characters, so it's not a priority for
cp-ascii's output to be more acceptable to UTF-8 locales.
It's fine if cp-ascii's output is just as acceptable for
UTF-8 locales as it is for ASCII locales.

That's rare in my book: just the 2 Emacs manuals weigh in at 124800
lines.

We've been living with `C-x'' forever, so I don't see a serious
problem here.  And if we really care, we can customize
OPEN_QUOTE_SYMBOL in Texinfo 5.

The systematic principle I propose is to convert everything except
letters, i.e. only punctuation and special characters.

It would be a priority if we decide to make that cp-ascii'd output the
default.

Well, at least I appreciate the promotion from "very rare"
to "rare".  :-)  It's still too common for comfort.

> We've been living with `C-x '' forever

But we're migrating away from it, which is partly what
prompted this discussion.  The question now is whether to
prefer ‘C-x '’ or 'C-x ''.  Of the three notations,
‘C-x '’ is the least confusing, and 'C-x '' the most.

We should not really care about it.  The Texinfo defaults are OK.

 From the viewpoint of the unibyte reader that's just weird.
Why should "ß" be converted to mojibake (destroying the point
of a code example) while "•" is converted to "*"
(a mere formatting nicety)?

To be honest, though, I think the whole idea of converting is
wrong, and as long as it's not the default I don't really
care.  If people complain about the conversion I'll just
say "don't do the conversion".  (Or send them to you.  :-)

That's not likely.  The general consensus seems to be that
Emacs should just use whatever Texinfo produces by default.
The proper place to reargue what Texinfo does should be in
the Texinfo forums.  Even cp-ascii goes too far, in my
opinion; I think we should just switch to UTF-8 and be
done with it.  But I'm willing to go along with cp-ascii as
a compromise, so long as it's not the default.

If this turns into a problem in practice, and Emacs builders
and/or distributors enable the cp-ascii option more often than
not, we can change the default to use cp-ascii, and use this as
good evidence to argue for a change to 'makeinfo'.  (This is an
unlikely scenario in my view.)

Because the former are rare in an otherwise English manual, and are
mostly in people's names, not in the stuff the manual tries to
describe.  By contrast, the latter are many and directly affect the
readability of the manual.

I expect Stefan is tired of the whole topic.  I know I am.

Stefan's initial comment was "I'd much rather change
Texinfo to default to utf-8" -- a sentiment I agree with,
though that'll require changes to Texinfo.  This
suggests a preference for UTF-8 encoded .texi files,
though not necessarily for UTF-8 encoded .info files.

Glenn and I have both expressed a preference for letting
makeinfo do its thing rather than try to second-guess it.
The only way that can be done with existing tools and
UTF-8 .texi files (without introducing some errors in the
output) is to specify @documentencoding UTF-8.

But they do exist outside of people's names, and in those cases
turning them to mojibake can make the content undecipherable.
Conversely, some of the symbols (such as "•") are relatively rare, and
transliterating them to mojibake typically doesn't hurt the content; after
all, the main role of "•" is to be a blotch at the start of a bullet
point, and pretty much any consistent blotch will do.

I still think it's Really Weird to transliterate some characters
to unibyte but not others, if the goal is to support unibyte
environments.

I'm not sure I understand all of the things discussed.
My position is as follows:
- I'd rather use Texinfo defaults, of course, to the extent that they
  work OK for Emacs.
- We should feel free to use Unicode chars (in utf-8 encoding) in .texi files
  (and utf-8 should be the default encoding, so there's no need to
  specify it explicitly in the file).
- Those Unicode chars should be preserved in the .info files (i.e. Info
  files should also use utf-8).
- The chars introduced by "makeinfo" itself should stick to ASCII for
  now by default.  I think we're pretty close to the point where ‘ and ’
  can be assumed to work "everywhere", but we're not quite there yet.
  But I'd hope that Debian builds would not follow that default and
  would tell make info to use things like ‘ and ’ since these chars
  should pretty much always work in a Debian system.

OK, attached is a patch to implement that suggestion, with the proviso
that the default is to use curly quotes on Debian-like systems where
UTF-8 support seems ubiquitous, and to use ASCII quotes elsewhere.
This should simplify configuration on Debianish systems. The 'locale'
command is used to check for UTF-8 support in English.

This feels like a new feature, so I'm somewhat inclined to leave this
stuff alone in the trunk until after the feature freeze is over.

As long as the regression is fixed, that sounds reasonable.  IOW,
we already had a regression from `...' to '...'.

IIUC, Eli reverted that regression, restoring `...'.  But if not,
then this should be fixed (somehow) before the release.

None of my patches, nor Eli's revert, affect
whether you get `...' as opposed to '...'.
That's a property of Texinfo, not of the Emacs source.
If you want `...', you can build with Texinfo 4.

It doesn't quite follow the suggestion in the part about "so there's no
need to specify it explicitly in the file".  Isn't there a way other
than modifying the file to tell Texinfo that the encoding is utf-8?

By "Debian builds" I really meant "builds of Emacs made by the Debian
team", not "builds made under Debian".

I'd rather not try to be clever here.  E.g. your test will end up using
ASCII in non-English locales, even though they're just as likely to
properly handle those Unicode chars.  Just default to no.

Agreed.  One more thing: the config option might like to use a more
generic name like "--with-liberal-use-of-unicode".

No, I didn't, not if Texinfo 5 is used to prepare the Info files.  In
that version of Texinfo, the default is '..'.

That's my position as well.  I think using --disable-encoding in
Texinfo 5 and --enable-encoding in older versions will achieve
precisely that.  It is also simple and doesn't require any
configure-time options.  All we need is a simple test in the Makefile
of the version of makeinfo being used.

Thanks.

However, I don't like system-specific defaults, and I think a
configure-time option to change this is a nuisance.

I think we should use --disable-encoding instead, and do it by
default.  People who want Unicode quotes and other special characters
can always override that by specifying non-default MAKEINFO_OPTS at
"make info" time.

No, not if you want makeinfo to put the 'coding' cookie in the file
local variables section of the Info file it produces.
@documentencoding is the way.

I agree.  And using --disable-encoding is a simpler way of achieving
that, as it doesn't need any postprocessing.

If so, we should at least fix the handful of manuals that already use
"@documentencoding utf-8", or use non-ASCII characters without any
@documentencoding, thus producing Info files that might display
incorrectly in certain locales.

Not that I know of, no.  Sorry.

No, because the test doesn't look at the current locale.
It looks at what locales are available.
That being said, the test could be improved to not care about
English; that's simpler anyway.  I'll attach a revised patch,
which also fixes some other problems I noticed (e.g., some
'sed' implementations mishandle NUL bytes).

Defaulting to ASCII in all platforms would leave the original
bug unfixed by default on all installations, causing the
regression from `foo' to 'foo' that Drew Adams complained of.
I.e., on all platforms the Emacs documentation would default
to lower quality than it's had for decades.  It's better to
default to ASCII only on platforms that don't support UTF-8
well.

But it's not liberal: it's conservative!  :-)
That is, it conserves the info file's contents.
Plus, it's UTF-8 not Unicode.

I tried names like '--with-some-utf-8-or-another' but
the 'utf-8-' makes it hard to parse visually, so I inverted the
flag to '--with-ascii-info-marks', which just barely fits in
'configure --help' output.  This is included in the revised
patch.

+# command works around some of the problem by replacing most UTF-8
+# characters in typical info files with ASCII approximations.
+
+# The input should be UTF-8.  The UTF-8 output is designed for an info
+# file in an environment that either groks UTF-8, or which mishandles
+# UTF-8 but which works with ASCII or near-ASCII and can tolerate some
+# mojibake.  Some information may be lost in the process, and the
+# number of characters and/or bytes may change.  Only non-ASCII
+# symbols generated by 'makeinfo' are transliterated.  Other non-ASCII
+# characters (which presumably came from the Info file itself) are
+# left alone; these will work properly in UTF-8 locales and will
+# probably be mojibake in non-UTF-8 locales.

No, because we can't assume  that the installer has 'makeinfo'
and can run 'makeinfo' with --disable-encoding.  Instead, we must use
universally-available tools like 'sed' when installing.

None of that would fix the regression that Drew Adams noted.
Better would be to leave the files alone, and build the next
Emacs tarball with Texinfo 4.  We can switch to Texinfo 5 for
building tarballs after the feature freeze is over.

That's not an Emacs problem.  The Texinfo developers decided to make
that change, and they followed the GNU Coding Standards.  Emacs needs
to adapt, as the rest of the GNU project did.  If you think this is a
step backwards, you need to talk to the Texinfo developers.

I wasn't talking about the installers, I was talking about someone who
does the "make info" step.  Of course, this being Free Software, any
end user can redo "make info" if the result is not to her liking.  At
that time, she can override the defaults if she so wants.

That regression is not our problem, and if we want to fix it in Emacs,
we can use one of the Emacs display features to display some
characters as some other characters.

I don't mind to use Texinfo 4, if there are no objections.  It would
solve the problem that matters to me.

But not the problem that matters to the OP and other users in a
similar situation.

The OP uses Debian and emacs-snapshot.  From the original report
(to me, but same OP):

----

I use debian linux and I have emacs23, emacs24 andd emacs-snapsho
installed.  They all come with their respective info files.  The info
files from emacs23 and emacs24 use `' as delimiters, the info file
from emacs-snapshot uses ''.

While the info files from emacs23 and emacs24 were generated with
makeinfo 4.13, the one from emacs-snapshot was generated with
makeinfo 5.2.  I don't know if this accounts for the difference.
ATM I building an emacs from development sources.  I have makeinfo
version 5.2 installed.  (...)

Aha the freshly built info file uses two straight single quotes,
as the ones shiped with emacs-snapshot.

The manual for makeinfo version 5.2 says:

'OUTPUT_ENCODING_NAME'
     Normalized encoding name used for output files.  Should be a usable
     charset name in HTML, typically one of the preferred IANA encoding
     names.  By default, if an input encoding is set (typically through
     '@documentencoding' or 'INPUT_ENCODING_NAME'), this information is
     used to set the output encoding name.  If no input encoding is
     specified, the default output encoding name may be set by the
     output format.  In particular, the XML-based formats use 'utf-8'
     for 'OUTPUT_ENCODING_NAME' if the encoding is not otherwise
     specified.  *Note @documentencoding::.

And tada: there is no @documentencoding directive in Emacs Lisp
Intros texinfo file.

But that's OK: the `coding' cookie should also be unnecessary for utf-8.

That's not a new problem and people haven't complained about it, AFAICT,
so I'd rather not touch it.

No, I really meant Unicode: the issue is not lack of support for utf-8,
but lack of support for some Unicode chars.

Yes, that too: Texinfo 4 still uses `..' for quoting.

Again, this isn't an Emacs problem.  It is wrong to expect Emacs to
fix problems caused by decisions of other packages.  However, patches
are welcome to fix that separately by using, e.g., display tables.

I wouldn't rely on that, but I see your point.

I won't recommend that: the effect is only visible with Texinfo 5,
which is still new.  Complaints might come too late for us to be able
to fix them (after the release).

Any such complaints would come only from people
expert enough to run makeinfo themselves, no?
So these people could be asked to run Texinfo 4,
just as we did, if they want to have quotes
`like this' that follow the older style.  It's
not unreasonable to ask experts to run old programs
if they want to generate old-style output.

Defaulting to ASCII in all platforms would not be not a Texinfo problem,
as the ASCII transformation in the proposed patch is an Emacs-only hack.
No other package uses it, or is likely to.  Texinfo has an established
method to avoid the regression, namely to use UTF-8 quote symbols, and
Emacs could easily adopt this method, just as other GNU programs have.

No.  The OP's problem came from an Emacs that was built otherwise.
That's the point.  He was aware of that being the cause; it is
exactly that problem that he reported (to me).

Yes, Texinfo and makeinfo are not Emacs.  That's your point.  But
that does not solve the OP's problem.  That's the point.

I can sympathize with that, and I agree with it generally.  Still,
it seems that in this case it means that more and more Emacs users
will get worse Info behavior in Emacs, as more and more builders
move to a more recent Texinfo/makeinfo.  Can we only tell users
that this is not an Emacs problem?  That's the answer?

Perhaps there comes a point when it might make sense to work
around some problems that are strictly speaking "not an Emacs
problem".  They can end up becoming a problem for Emacs (Emacs
users), whether or not Emacs is the source of the problem.

Of course, whether to try to work around such a problem probably
also depends on the difficulty of implementing (and maintaining)
the workaround.  I cannot speak to that.

I will only say that it's too bad if Emacs users lose reasonable
Info behavior that they have enjoyed since the beginning.

Not necessarily.  I'm talking again about the Unicode characters
produced by Texinfo 5 when @documentencoding says utf-8.  Any user can
bump into this.

I wasn't talking about ASCII transformation.  I was talking about
either avoiding the use of "@documentencoding utf-8" or using
"--disable-encoding" for those manuals that need non-ASCII text.

I think we should take the risk.  It will also give us a good idea of
whether avoiding Unicode quotes is worth the trouble
of --disable-encoding (or of a sed script to convert them back to
ASCII).

Yes.  The bug should be reported to Texinfo maintainers.

A user won't bump into that in the released Emacs manual, if
we build it with Texinfo 4.  The only people who will bump
into that are people who edit the manual and run Texinfo themselves.
These are few enough and expert enough that we can simply ask
them to use Texinfo 4 if they care about the quoting and don't
want to work on the trunk.

But I was, in the message you replied to.
My message was talking about  whether the proposed patch
should default to the ASCII transformation.  Doing that
would leave the original Emacs bug unfixed by default,
which is undesirable.

Ah, OK, but neither of those approaches is suitable
for the Emacs manuals in the long run, after the
feature freeze is over.  And in the short run we
can just leave the files alone, and build the
next release tarball with Texinfo 4.

It's temporary, because we're in a feature freeze and don't
want to install the necessary feature until after the next release.
The next release should use Texinfo 4 to build the tarball, so
its info files should still use quotes `like this', and there
shouldn't be a regression.

After the feature freeze is over, we can install the necessary
feature and switch to the new Texinfo, which quotes ‘like this’,
so there still won't be a regression.  The new feature will let
installers choose to quote 'like this' if they like (which
*will* be a regression from your point of view), but that'll
be an option that you won't have to choose.

It will solve some of the problem, because Emacs will be released with
the quoting he wanted.

But the problem itself should find there solution either in Texinfo,
or in the Lisp programs (and users' minds) that will adapt to the
change.

As I said, patches are welcome to display '..' as something more
visually pleasing.

That ship sailed several months ago.  There's nothing we can do to
return it, unless Texinfo changes back (unlikely, if you ask me).

Why? what damage you envision from fixing a couple of manuals that are

There's no expertise involved in "make info".  And it uses the version
of Texinfo installed on the system, which normally has nothing to do
with Emacs.

My suggestion solves more potential problems, so I think it is better
even in the short run, if not in the long.

The text you elided explains the benefit I hope to get from not changing
(you call it "fixing" but I disagree with this designation)
those manuals.

Typical Emacs users don't run 'make info'.
And even for the few who do run it, it does nothing
unless they also edit a .texi file, which is
something typical users also are unlikely to
do.  The rare user who's expert enough to edit
the manual, run 'make info', and care about
how the resulting quotes look, should be able
to understand and act on suggestions either to use
Texinfo 4 or to update to the post-freeze trunk.

> My suggestion solves more potential problems

I'm afraid not.  Avoiding @documentencoding causes
Texinfo 5 to mishandle UTF-8 characters when generating
formats such as HTML, so that's a non-starter.
And both it and --disable-encoding cause the
regression that Drew noted.  So it'd be unwise
to use either approach postfreeze when we build the
tarball's Info files with Texinfo 5 -- and these are
the most commonly-used Info files.

Sounds reasonable to me, though I guess it means that some users
whose installers choose '...' for them will see a regression wrt
1985 (presumably from anyone's point of view).

I elided it because it started with "also", which I interpreted to
mean that the part I quoted stood on its own.  So I asked for the
reasons to that part, and that part only.

If now you are saying that the reason is this:

> It will give us a good idea of whether avoiding Unicode quotes is
> worth the trouble of --disable-encoding (or of a sed script to
> convert them back to ASCII)

then I confess that it's a strange reason: why avoid solving a clear
problem just to know whether it is worth solving, when the solution is
at hand and quite simple.

> (you call it "fixing" but I disagree with this designation)

Let me try to convince you.  Try this:

  $ LC_CTYPE=sv_SE.ISO8859-1 ./src/emacs -Q
  C-u C-h i info/htmlfontify.info RET
  g Interactive RET

Then look around the middle of the first screen, in a paragraph that
begins with "You should", and tell me whether you still think this
need not be fixed.  Also, note the encoding displayed by Emacs on the
mode line (it should be UTF-8).

Similar problems exist in org.info, mh-e.info, ses.info, and
dbus.info.

(You may need to generate the manuals with makeinfo 4.13 to see these
problems.)

They might, if they want to make small changes.

In any case, as I show in my previous message, the problems are not
limited to Texinfo 5 (unlike what I previously thought).

I didn't propose to make any changes in the HTML targets, they can
continue using --enable-encoding.  I also didn't suggest to remove
@documentencoding; quite the contrary, the fix I suggested is to _add_
such a directive to those manuals that don't have it, but use UTF-8
encoded characters.

That's not an Emacs problem.

That's a longstanding problem.  For example,
if I run this in an Emacs-24.3 source tree:

      $ LC_ALL=sv_SE.ISO8859-1 ./src/emacs -Q
      C-u C-h i info/dbus.info RET
      g Type Conversion RET M->

I see a "ÿ" that should be a "ÿ".

As I understand it this problem doesn't occur often,
and is limited to the now-rare users who employ
unibyte locales.  If so, it's not urgent to fix this
longstanding problem now.

The problem is fixed by the proposed post-feature-freeze
patch.

But the fix (for the next release) is easy and safe: just add an
appropriate @documentencoding.  So I don't see why we should avoid
fixing this.

Then I'm puzzled, because when I did pretty much just that in
trunk bzr 115807, you reverted the patch.  It's fine with me
if we reinstall that patch.

If we are going to use Texinfo 4 for generating the manuals in the
next release, the problem that bothered me will not happen in the Info
files that will be in the release tarball.

Ah, OK, then we can separate the proposed patch into two parts.
The first just adds @documentencoding lines, and can be installed
now.  The second deals with ASCIIfying the info files, a new feature
that can wait until after the feature freeze is over.  I'm attaching
both patches.

I'm okay with the first one.

As for the second, I still think that (a) the ASCII version should be
the default, and (b) using --enable/disable-encoding on the makeinfo
command line is an easier way of achieving the same effect.  But if
Stefan prefers this method, so be it.

Thanks.

OK, I pushed it into the trunk as bzr 115884.

The second one should wait until after the feature freeze is over
so there's no rush in nailing down the details.

Let's look at (b) first.  I don't see how it would work,
since we can't assume that the installer has makeinfo,
which means the option cannot be made at install time
by using --enable-encoding or --disable-encoding.

Unless you want to ship two copies of each .info file
in the tarball, a full version and an ASCIIfied version?
That would work, but it's unnecessary
bloat of the tarball, since the ASCIIfied version can be
derived from the full version, and even aside from the bloat
the overall procedure is probably more complicated
than what we have already in the proposed patch.

Is it a frequent situation that someone who does the configure and
"make" steps doesn't have makeinfo?  I thought this to be rare.  If
I'm wrong, then I guess those users who do want to generate the Info
files with a non-default style of punctuation will have to install
Texinfo or live with this minor problem.  And if we use (a) as well,
then the distributed version will already be completely readable, if
not the most beautiful one.

No, of course not.

It's reasonably common.  In Debian, for example, texinfo is not
one of the essential packages.  On many non-GNU environments such
as AIX and HP-UX, 'makeinfo' is not available unless you build and
install it yourself.  And for the GNU project, 'makeinfo' isn't
listed as one of the standard utilities that Makefiles can assume:

If the the installer could obtain some compensating advantage by
being forced to install 'makeinfo' to get the style they prefer,
it might be worth the hassle.  But there doesn't seem to be any
such advantage.  So why not use 'sed'?  It avoids the hassle entirely.

I don't see a change from `...' to '...' in this recent build:

In GNU Emacs 24.4.50.1 (i686-pc-mingw32)
 of 2014-04-29 on ODIEONE
Bzr revision: 117031 monnier@iro.umontreal.ca-20140429151607-qnkgbymwfaj5ut08
Windowing system distributor `Microsoft Corp.', version 6.1.7601
Configured using:
 `configure --prefix=/c/Devel/emacs/snapshot/trunk
 --enable-checking=yes,glyphs 'CFLAGS=-O0 -g3'
 LDFLAGS=-Lc:/Devel/emacs/lib 'CPPFLAGS=-DGC_MCHECK=1
 -Ic:/Devel/emacs/include''

But I've had a report from an info+.el user that his 24.4.50.1
build breaks the Info+ highlighting of names because '...' is
used now instead of `...'.  Dunno whether he has control over
the generation of Info files from Texinfo.

AFAIK, there is no way, from Emacs Lisp, to know whether an Info
file has been built to use '...' or `...'.  Is that correct?

IIUC, at Info build time there is a setting, @documentencoding,
that determines this.  In any case, Texinfo must somehow know
which pattern is being used for Info.

Request: Could we please have this information transmitted to
the resulting Info files somehow, so that it could be obtained
by Lisp code?

It would be much better, for instance, for the info+.el code
to use one or the other pattern for highlighting than it would
be to try to highlight both in the same file, just to catch the
appropriate one.

This depends not only on the Texinfo sources of the docs, but also on
the version of makeinfo used by whoever produced the Info files as
part of the Emacs build.  It is quite possible that the latter part is
different between your build and that other user's.

> AFAIK, there is no way, from Emacs Lisp, to know whether an Info

Why not?  they are just characters.

> that determines this.

No, these are ASCII characters, so @documentencoding has nothing to do
with it.  But the version of makeinfo does: the latest versions
produce '...'.

> Request: Could we please have this information transmitted to

It is already there:

  This is ../../info/emacs.info, produced by makeinfo version 4.13
  from ./emacs.texi.

If the version is 5.x, then you should expect '...'.

Note that you could also have Unicode characters there.  It's a mess.

Emacs should be built either with an old makeinfo, which should quote 
`like this' with ASCII accent-grave and apostrophe, or with a new 
makeinfo, which should quote ‘like this’ with Unicode directed 
single-quotes. Makeinfo shouldn't quote 'like this' with ASCII 
apostrophe only. Perhaps your info+.el user could investigate why 
makeinfo is misbehaving for them, and if they figure that out it might 
be nice for us to modify the Emacs distribution to stop the misbehavior. 
This should fix the problem without info+.el having to worry about which 
makeinfo version was used.

Also: in a standard Emacs tarball the builder shouldn't ever run 
makeinfo, as the info files should all be prebuilt and up-to-date. Can 
your info+.el user please also investigate why that didn't work for them?

There are no 24.4.50 tarballs, so I see nothing to investigate there.
It was presumably a build from bzr.

Huh?  Yes, they are characters.  And how would you determine
whether '...' or `...' quoting of names is in effect in a given
Info buffer?

You might be able to check whether, say, the Emacs manual has
'...' or `...' by moving to a particular node where you expect
a particular symbol to be quoted (and that you expect to remain
present across Emacs versions), and move to that symbol and test
the char before it...  But that would be an ugly and inefficient
workaround, and different manuals might be built using different
makeinfo versions etc.

I'm asking for a simple check.  Maybe a file-local variable or
something.

I thought, from this thread, that builds could control whether
'...' or `...' gets used.  Is that not the case?  And I
(mistakenly) thought that @documentencoding was involved with that.

If '...' is used systematically from now on, starting with some
version of makeinfo, then that is indeed bad news.
'...' is absolutely inferior to `...', IMHO.

Yes, at the beginning of the file, outside of what is visible
in the manual, i.e., in Info mode.

I want something simple, evaluable from Info mode.  I don't want
to have to widen the buffer or change the mode or jump through
any other hoops.  A function or a variable whose value lets
Lisp code know whether `...' or '...' quoting is in effect.

Where is "there"?  How does that relate to this quoting?
Are you perhaps referring to a possible use of curly quotes
for such quoting?  That would indeed be bad (from my point of
view).

Perhaps we agree, for once, though we might not agree about
what the mess is; dunno.

Ah, thanks, then presumably the makeinfo on the user's machine is part 
of the problem, and it'd be helpful to know exactly which version it was.

I expect it'll be better to squash the bug at the source than to send 
info+.el down the rabbit hole of trying to parse quoting 'like this'.

I thought Eli was saying that it does just that: '...'.
What am I missing between what you two are saying about this?

I think this user might be willing to check, if we could tell
him how to do so.

Great, but I would still want Info+ to be able to easily test,
using Lisp, which is being used in the current Info buffer:
`...' or '...'.

As I mentioned, it is a lot better to try to fontify just the
proper pattern, rather than to try to fontify both possibilities
at the same time, just in case.

Such highlighting is never failsafe anyway (it can be thrown off
by a solitary quote symbol etc.), and if a regexp tries to match
both patterns at the same time then that just increases the
likelihood of doing the wrong thing.

So you are saying that if he got Emacs from a "standard tarball"
then '...' is the fault of the builder of that standard tarball.
Which would be whom?

I can try to find out where he got the Info files.  I don't
think he built them himself, but I have asked him and hope to
hear back.

Your user is reporting that, so that's what Eli is diagnosing. The point 
is that makeinfo shouldn't be doing that.

Run 'makeinfo' on the attached file t.texi and look at the quoting in 
the output file t.info. It should use ASCII accent-grave and apostrophe 
with old texinfo, and Unicode curly single quotes with new texinfo. 
Similarly, the double quotes should use ASCII undirected double-quote 
(both times) with old texinfo, and Unicode curly double quotes with new 
texinfo.

Info files should never use the latter in Emacs 24.4, so this shouldn't 
be a problem.

Down the road there may be a problem, as we really need to accommodate 
new Texinfo. It has been suggested that we change the Emacs build 
procedure to transliterate the output of new Texinfo so that by default 
it quotes 'like this' instead of ‘like this’. I think this would be a 
mistake, and your recent bug report gives another argument against it.

For your planning purposes, here is a list of non-ASCII characters that 
are generated by new Texinfo when applied to the Emacs documentation as 
of January or so. You might want to check that info+.el handles these 
characters, as some users will run into them either because they built 
the manuals themselves with new Texinfo, or because they're reading 
manuals generated by other GNU projects. I think Emacs is the only 
holdout that still insists on old Texinfo.

' ' (i.e., NO-BREAK SPACE, U+00A0)
'真' (i.e., Han character 'real, actual, true, genuine', U+771F)

OK, I just passed that information along to him.

FWIW, I have received this info from him:

  I built from source with makinfo 5.2. However, makeinfo 5.2 works
  fine for Emacs pretest (emacs 24.3.90), but not for Emacs trunk
  (24.4.50): bzr branch bzr://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/emacs/trunk

  Here are the steps to build:
  - ./configure --with-x-toolkit=gtk
  - make
  - sudo make install

What does old vs new texinfo refer to?  Did you perhaps mean old vs
new makeinfo?  If not, how does he tell whether he has "old" or "new"
Texinfo?

Is the problem just for `...' vs '...' or ‘...’?  What about Lisp (and
other) code, where we use ", ', and `, and none of those should be
changed to a curly version of the same?  A Lisp string, for instance,
must be enclosed in straight double-quote chars, the same char at each
end.

It would be madness if such chars were being automatically "improved"
everywhere willy nilly to become curly versions.

Not sure why you let me know this (but I'm glad to have it).  A priori,
I have no problem with any such chars in an Info buffer.  Any problems
that I would have would I think come from substituting chars that
currently have particular meaning to Info (or to Lisp etc. - see above).

PS also note that vhdl-mode.texi does not contain @documentencoding.
I think it's a bit crap if we are supposed to remember to add this to
all new texi files, even if they have no real need for it.

(Presumably the fabulous info+.el is supposed to handle other info files
besides just those from Emacs, so it needs to handle this anyway.)

Works for me, with makeinfo 5.2.  I see curly quotes in the info files 
when I configure and build and install with that recipe.  If it's 
failing for him we need to know what the failure is and how to reproduce it.

'makeinfo --version'.  The makeinfo command is part of the texinfo package.

> Is the problem just for `...' vs '...' or ‘...’?

Not sure what you mean by "the problem", but other characters are 
affected, yes.

Shouldn't be a problem, as those characters should not be changed. 
Makeinfo can determine this from the markup in the .texi file.

Some of those characters do have a particular meaning.  For example, • 
is used for bulleted lists instead of *, so if info+.el is keying only 
off "*" (for old texinfo) it'll need to change to support new texinfo.  
Other characters are used for output displays.

It's just the top-level .texi files, but yes it's annoying.  I think we 
have a bug report in for that, for what it's worth.

I fixed the vhdl-mode.texi problem in Emacs trunk bzr 117045 and checked 
that it was the only .texi file in the trunk with that problem.

Yup.

You're the one who said there may be a problem in the future... ;-)

For me, the problem is that what used to be represented as `...' could
be represented as something else - IIUC it could be `...', '...' or
‘...’.

I see.  No, Info+ does nothing special with bullets.  Well, it does the
same kind of thing that info.el does wrt bulleted menu items, e.g.:

(re-search-forward (concat "^\\* +" (regexp-quote nodename) "::") end t)

If info.el has to adjust for that then info+.el will do so similarly.
If not, not.

That shouldn't be a problem, since new Texinfo still uses "*" for 
bulleted menu items.  It's only things like "@itemize @bullet" that are 
different.

They now do so, so the reported issue is fixed.

@documentencoding, I think.  It determines whether makeinfo 5.x will
use '...' or ‘...’.

Yes, that might explain things.  If a toplevel .texi file does not 
contain @documentencoding, makeinfo 5 will quote 'like this'.  Emacs 
doesn't do this, though.

Thanks.  I guess that's as good as it's going to get.  I was hoping
for a file/buffer local variable or something.  This is the kind of
hoop-jumping I was talking about, but I do appreciate your having
coded it up.

This would need to be consulted each time an Info node is fontified.
Yes, the search can be done instead just whenever the Info file is
changed, and then saved for consultation upon node fontifying for
the same file.  (Still, I would hope for something simpler.)

I still think that such a local variable would be useful for Emacs,
but FYI:

I updated info+.el without regard to checking whether Info uses
curly or straight quote-wrapping for this.  It's not so clean as
searching only for the format that is actually used, but it seems
to be fine to just search for both.  Dumb, but it works OK.

What would be useful is a variable to hold the makeinfo version
extracted from the visited Info manual.  Such variable could be used
to simplify feature checks like `Info-file-supports-index-cookies'.

That's what I had in mind - but I wasn't aware of that additional
use case.
