Subject: elisp documentation links to emacs doc
Date: Fri, 11 Jan 2008 19:06:25 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <D984D7C2-D7C8-4E5B-9964-F48BD59B2F13@xahlee.org> (raw)


In the official HTML version of the elisp doc, there are many links  
to the emacs doc nodes. (i counted, 101 of them.)

For example: the node Major-Mode-Conventions
http://xahlee.org/elisp/Major-Mode-Conventions.html

has links to emacs doc node “Options Controlling Comments.”

My problem is that for those who only install one doc, then the links  
are dead.

Are people suppose do always install these 2 docs together? If not,  
is there some mechanism, either when writing the doc or generating  
the doc, to not result in links to other docs?

(i have a few other issues about emacs documentation. Is this the  
right channel?)

Thanks.
