SEMI/1.14.6 (Maruoka) FLIM/1.14.8 (Shijō) APEL/10.7 Emacs/22.1 (i486-pc-linux-gnu) MULE/5.0 (SAKAKI) |
I built and installed the MySQL Info manual. The manual would show up
in the dir node when I invoked `info' from the command line but was
nowhere to be found when I invoked `info' within Emacs. I tracked
this down to the fact that the MySQL entry in the Info dir node was
the last one and that there was no newline after it. Inserted a
newline allowed Emacs to "see" the manual and load it up properly
inside Info running in Emacs. This might be purposeful design, but it
feels like a bug to me: Emacs Info should behave like the command-line
info and not any different.
