Re: [help-texinfo] defining new environments

[Karl Berry]

Hi Leo,

    @alias lang=lisp
    then I can begin an environment with @lang but must end
    it with @end lisp. Is this a bug, feature or ...

Good question.  @alias was never intended to be usable with
environments.  I see the manual doesn't state this, though.  I'll see if
I can either make it work in texinfo.tex or document that it doesn't.
(Patrice, does it work with t2h|tp?)

    2. Is there another mechanism to define environments within
    a texinfo document.

Nothing is coming to mind, sorry.

Best,
Karl
