In the default Info, @pxref succeeds, but @xref fails.
This is a bug in Emacs display, not makeinfo.
This morning's CVS snapshot, Sun, 2005 Oct 23 12:42 UTC
GNU Emacs 22.0.50.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.6.10)
built using only
(compile
"time make -C lisp autoloads && cd lisp && \
time make recompile \
EMACS=/usr/local/src/emacs/src/emacs && \
cd /usr/local/src/emacs/ && \
time make info html"))
and the (presumably temporary and irrelevant) eval-at-startup bug
handled so I do not get the `Symbol's function definition is void:'
error, and using GNU Texinfo 4.8.
In the default, Info-hide-note-references is non-nil.
Then @xref lacks a proper capitalized `See' using both
emacs -Q and emacs -Q -D.
But with emacs -Q and evaluating
(setq Info-hide-note-references nil)
the cross references appear properly.
With the default, which is t, @xref display wrongly:
Here is a @pxref (see Musings on fossil fuels) in a sentence.
Here is a standalone @xref within parentheses:
(see Musings on fossil fuels.)
Here is another @xref within parentheses, but with following text:
(see Musings on fossil fuels, with non-cross-reference text.)
With the following evaluated, (setq Info-hide-note-references nil)
the GNU Emacs Info is correct:
Here is a @pxref (*note Musings on fossil fuels::) in a sentence.
Here is a standalone @xref within parentheses:
(*Note Musings on fossil fuels::.)
Here is another @xref within parentheses, but with following text:
(*Note Musings on fossil fuels::, with non-cross-reference text.)
Here is the output in DVI:
Here is an @pxref (see Chapter 2 [Musings on fossil fuels], page
2) in a sentence.
Here is a standalone @xref within parentheses:
(See Chapter 2 [Musings on fossil fuels], page 2.)
Here is another @xref within parentheses, but with following text:
(See Chapter 2 [Musings on fossil fuels], page 2, with
non-cross-reference text.)
Here is the Texinfo source for the two output formats:
Here is an @@pxref (@pxref{Musings on fossil fuels}) in a sentence.
Here is a standalone xref within parentheses:
(@xref{Musings on fossil fuels}.)
Here is another @@xref within parentheses, but with following text:
(@xref{Musings on fossil fuels}, with non-cross-reference text.)
