The change for Info looks right to me. I added more test lines to foo.texi and they all look right in the default Emacs Info. However, I also checked the DVI version, created by `texi2dvi'. Unfortunately, that makes a capitalized `See' when the preceding text with a colon and is not followed by a blank line. In DVI as viewed with xdvi: Here is another @xref, no parentheses; this ends with a colon and is not followed by a blank line: See Musings on fossil fuels. But in the default Info display: Here is another @xref, no parentheses; this ends with a colon and is not followed by a blank line: see Musings on fossil fuels. Here is the test file I used: \input texinfo.tex @c -*-texinfo-*- @comment %**start of header @setfilename foo.info @settitle Texinfo Test @smallbook @comment %**end of header @ignore ## Summary of shell commands to create various output formats: pushd /u/texinfo/ ## Info output makeinfo --force --fill-column=70 --no-split --paragraph-indent=0 \ --verbose foo.texi ## ;; (kill-buffer "*info*") ## ;; (info "/u/texinfo/foo.info" nil) ## DVI output texi2dvi foo.texi ## View DVI output ## xdvi foo.dvi & ## HTML output makeinfo --no-split --html foo.texi ## Plain text output makeinfo --fill-column=70 --no-split --paragraph-indent=0 \ --verbose --no-headers --output=foo.txt \ foo.texi ## DocBook output makeinfo --docbook --no-split --paragraph-indent=0 \ --verbose foo.texi ## XML output makeinfo --xml --no-split --paragraph-indent=0 \ --verbose foo.texi popd @end ignore @titlepage @sp 6 @center @titlefont{Test document} @sp 4 @center by Robert J.
