Hello.

The footnote as follows

  #+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
    1 A single-quote is an abbreviation for the special form quote; you need not think about special forms now. See ⟨unde ned⟩ “Complications”, page ⟨unde ned⟩.
  #+END_EXAMPLE 

is produced from line 1009 in emacs-lisp-intro.texi as follows

: about special forms now.  @xref{Complications}.}  Lists are the basis

using `make docs’ for release `tags/emacs-26.1-rc1’. 

I expect the `⟨undefined⟩' to be filled and function to jump to places.



Note, the example copy is missing `fi’ in `undefined' possibly due to the lack of font in this email application.

`@xref{Complications}’ has no target in at `tex’ context.

Maybe it needs to read `@ifnottex @xref{Complications} @end ifnottex’.

Yes, someone made this section be a node only in the on-line versions,
but forgot to review all the cross-references to it.  There were a
couple more like that in the manual.

No, that's too radical.  I simply fixed the cross-references to work
in the printed version of the manual as well.

Thanks.
