So, instead of the current J> header line and node header: J> Next: uniq invocation, Up: Operating on sorted files J> File: coreutils.info, Node: sort invocation which one sees only in the standalone info reader, and only at the top of a page. Anyway, I'm talking about what one sees at the top of the screen, when not at the top of a page, and in emacs: Next: uniq invocation, Up: Operating on sorted files J> it's better to hide the node header completely and show the J> following header line: J> (coreutils)sort invocation Next: uniq invocation, Up: Operating on sorted files I see, adding "(coreutils)sort invocation" to the front of the line. Sounds good, and there should be enough room too.
