Info file ../info/texinfo, produced by Makeinfo, -*- Text -*- from input file texinfo.texinfo.

This is edition 1.1 of the Texinfo documentation, and is for the Texinfo that is distributed as part of Version 18 of GNU Emacs. Copyright (C) 1988 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

File: texinfo, Node: Using texinfo-show-structure, Next: Running Info-Validate, Prev: Debugging with Tex, Up: Catching Mistakes Using `texinfo-show-structure' ============================== It is not always easy to keep track of the nodes, chapters, sections and subsections of a Texinfo file. This is especially true if you are revising or adding to a Texinfo file that someone else has written. In GNU Emacs, in Texinfo mode, there is a command that will list all the lines that begin with the @-commands that specify the structure: @node, @chapter, @section, @appendix and so on. This is the `texinfo-show-structure' command. It is bound to the keyboard command `C-c C-s'. `texinfo-show-structure' displays the lines that begin with the node and chapter structuring @-commands in another window called the `*Occur*' buffer. For example, when `texinfo-show-structure' is run on the first part of this chapter, it produces the following: Lines matching "^@\$chapter\\|unnum\\|appendix\\|sect\\|sub\\|heading\\|major \\|node\$" in buffer new-texinfo-manual.texinfo. 2:@node catching mistakes, @-Command Syntax, running info, top 4:@chapter Catching Mistakes 41:@node debugging with info, debugging with tex, , catching mistakes 43:@section Catching errors with Info Formatting This means that lines 2, 4, 41 and 43 began with `@node', `@chapter', `@node', and `@section' respectively. If you move your cursor into the `*Occur*' window, you can position the cursor over one of the lines and use the `C-c C-c' command (`occur-mode-goto-occurrence'), to jump to the corresponding spot in the Texinfo file. *Note : (emacs)Other Repeating Search, for more information about `occur-mode-goto-occurrence'. The first line in the `*Occur*' window describes the "regular expression" specified by TEXINFO-HEADING-PATTERN. This regular expression is the pattern that `texinfo-show-structure' looks for. *Note : (emacs)Regexps, for more information. When you give the `texinfo-show-structure' command, it will show the structure of the whole buffer. If you want to see the structure of just a part of the buffer, of one chapter, for example, use the `C-x n' (`narrow-to-region') command to mark the region. (*Note : (emacs)Narrowing.) This is how the example used above was generated. (To see the whole buffer again, use `C-x w' (`widen').) You can remind yourself of the structure of a Texinfo file by looking at the list in the `*Occur*' window; and if you have mis-named a node or left out a section, you can correct the mistake. * Menu: * Using Occur:: File: texinfo, Node: Using Occur, Prev: Using texinfo-show-structure, Up: Using texinfo-show-structure Using `occur' ------------- Sometimes the `texinfo-show-structure' command produces too much information. Perhaps you want to remind yourself of the overall structure of a Texinfo file, and are overwhelmed by the detailed list produced by `texinfo-show-structure'. In this case, you can use the `occur' command itself. To do this, type `M-x occur' and then, when prompted, type a "regexp", a regular expression for the pattern you want to match. (*Note : (emacs)Regexps.) `occur' works from the current location of the cursor in the buffer to the end of the buffer. If you want to run `occur' on the whole buffer, place the cursor at the beginning of the buffer. For example, to see all the lines that contain the word `@chapter' in them, just type `@chapter'. This will produce a list of the chapters. It will also list all the sentences with `@chapter' in the middle of the line. If you want to see only those lines that start with the word `@chapter', type `^@chapter' when prompted by `occur'. If you want to see all the lines that end with a word or phrase, end the last word with a `$'; for example, `catching mistakes$'. This can be helpful when you want to see all the nodes that are part of the same chapter or section and therefore have the same `Up' pointer. *Note : (emacs)Other Repeating Search, for more information. File: texinfo, Node: Running Info-Validate, Prev: Using texinfo-show-structure, Up: Catching Mistakes Finding Badly Referenced Nodes ============================== You can check whether any of the `Next', `Previous', `Up' or other node pointers fail to point to a node with the `Info-validate' command. This command checks that every node pointer points to an existing node. To use this command, you first need to load the `info' library and then do `M-x Info-validate'. `M-x load-library RET info RET' `M-x Info-validate' (Note that all the `Info' commands require an uppercase `I'.) If your file is ok, you will receive a message that says "File appears valid". However, if you have a pointer that does not point to a node, error messages will be displayed in a buffer called `*problems in info file*'. For example, `Info-validate' was run on a test file that contained only the first node of this manual. One of the messages said: In node "Overview", invalid Next: Texinfo Mode This meant that the node called `Overview' had a `Next' pointer that did not point to anything (which was true in this case, since the test file had only one node in it). Now suppose we add a node named `Texinfo Mode' to our test case but we don't specify a `Previous' for this node. Then we will get the following error message: In node "Texinfo Mode", should have Previous: Overview This is because every `Next' pointer should be matched by a `Previous' (in the node where the `Next' points) which points back. `Info-validate' also checks that all menu items and cross-references point to actual nodes. Significantly, `Info-validate' does not work with large files that have been split. (Info thinks of a large file as being over 100,000 bytes, approximately.) In order to use `Info-validate' on a large file, you must run `texinfo-format-buffer' with an argument so that it does not split the Info file, and then create a tag table. * Menu: * Info-Validating a Large File:: Running `Info-validate' on a large file. * Splitting:: Splitting a file manually. File: texinfo, Node: Info-Validating a Large File, Next: Splitting, Prev: Running Info-Validate, Up: Running Info-Validate Running `Info-validate' on a Large File. ---------------------------------------- You can run `Info-validate' only on a single Info file. The command will not work on indirect subfiles that are generated when the master file is split. If you have a large file (longer than 100,000 bytes), you need to run the `texinfo-format-buffer' command in such a way that it does not create indirect subfiles. You will also need to create a tag table. When you have done this, you can run `Info-validate' and look for badly referenced nodes. After you have validated the node structure, you can rerun `texinfo-format-buffer' in the normal way so it will construct the tag table and split the file automatically or, you can make the tag table and split the file manually. To prevent the `texinfo-format-buffer' command from splitting a Texinfo file into smaller Info files, give a prefix to the `M-x texinfo-format-buffer' command: C-u M-x texinfo-format-buffer When you do this, Texinfo will not split the file and will not create a tag table for it. Before you can run `M-x Info-validate' on the Info file, you need to create a tag table for it. In order to do this, you first need to load the `info' library into Emacs with the following command: M-x load-library RET info RET Then you can give the command: M-x Info-tagify This creates a file which you can validate. M-x Info-validate After you have checked the validity of the nodes, you can either run `M-x texinfo-format-buffer' as you would normally, or else tagify and split the file manually with the two commands `Info-tagify' and `Info-split'. File: texinfo, Node: Splitting, Prev: Info-Validating a Large File, Up: Running Info-Validate Splitting a File Manually ------------------------- If the file has more than 100,000 or so bytes in it, you should split it or else let the `texinfo-format-buffer' command do it for you automatically. (Generally you will let `texinfo-format-buffer' do this job for you. *Note Creating an Info File::.) The split off files are called the indirect subfiles. Info files are split to save memory. With smaller files, Emacs does not have make such a large buffer to hold the information. This way, Emacs can save memory. If the Info file has more than 30 nodes, you should also make a tag table for it. *Note Info-Validating a Large File::, for information about creating a tag table. Before running `Info-split', you need to load the `info' library into Emacs by giving the command `M-x load-library RET info RET'. After you have done this, you can give the two commands: M-x Info-tagify M-x Info-split (Note that the `I' in `Info' is uppercase.) When you use the `Info-split' command, the buffer is modified into a (small) Info file which lists the indirect subfiles. This file should be saved in place of the original visited file. The indirect subfiles are written in the same directory the original file is in, with names generated by appending `-' and a number to the original file name. The primary file still functions as an Info file, but it contains just the tag table and a directory of subfiles. File: texinfo, Node: Command Syntax, Next: Include Files, Prev: Catching Mistakes, Up: Top @-Command Syntax **************** The character `@' is used to start special Texinfo commands. (It has the same meaning that `\' has in plain TeX.) Syntactically, there are three classes of @-commands: 1. Non-alphabetic commands: @ followed by a punctuation character. These commands are always part of the text within a paragraph, and never take any argument. The two characters (@ and the other one) are complete in themselves. For example, `@.', `@:', `@{' and `@}'. 2. Alphabetic commands used within a paragraph. These commands have @ followed by a letter or a word, followed by an argument within braces. For example, the command `@dfn' indicates the introductory or defining use of a term; it is used as follows: `In Texinfo, @-commands are @dfn{mark-up} commands.' 3. Alphabetic commands used outside of paragraphs. Each such command occupies an entire line. The line starts with @, followed by the name of the command (a word) such as `@center' or `@cindex'. If no argument is needed, the word is followed by the end of the line. If there is an argument, it is separated from the command name by a space. Thus, the alphabetic commands fall into two classes that have different argument syntax. You cannot tell which class a command falls in by the appearance of its name, but you can tell by the command's meaning: if it makes sense to use the command together with other words as part of a paragraph, the command is in class 2 and must be followed by an argument in braces; otherwise, it is in class 3 and uses the rest of the line as its argument. The purpose of having different syntax for commands of classes 2 and 3 is to make the Texinfo file easier to read, and also to help the GNU Emacs paragraph and filling commands work properly. There is only one exception to this rule: the command `@refill', which is always used at the end of a paragraph immediately following the final period or other punctuation character. `@refill' takes no argument. `@refill' never confuses the Emacs paragraph commands because it cannot start at the beginning of a line. File: texinfo, Node: Include Files, Next: TeX Input, Prev: Command Syntax, Up: Top Include Files ************* When Info was first created, it was customary to create many small Info files on one subject. By doing this, Emacs did not have to make a large buffer to hold the whole of a large Info file; instead, Emacs allocated just enough memory for the small Info file that was needed at the time. This way, Emacs could avoid wasting memory. Include files were designed as a way to create a single, large printed manual out of several smaller Info files. However, because large Info files can now be split, include files are no longer strictly necessary and they are used infrequently. Most often, they are now used in projects where several different people are writing different sections of a document simultaneously. How Include Files Work ====================== In a Texinfo file, a line of the form `@include `filename'' is ignored when the Info file is generated, but in a printed manual it causes the contents of the file `filename' to be processed and included in the manual. The contents of the file `filename' can be ignored by Info because the first file can refer to `filename' with menus as well as cross references. In the Info system, all the information is, as it were, `in one place'. However, when two printed manuals are made from two separate Texinfo files, the two manuals are separate, and even if they give each other as references, the references are to separate documents. Consequently, you will sometimes want to create a comprehensive, printed manual that contains all the necessary information together in one place. `@include' files are special Texinfo files that are used only for making such a comprehensive manual. They are listed inside an outer file that contains nothing but the beginning and end matter of a Texinfo file and a number of `@include' commands listing the included files. An `@include' file--a file that will be listed inside an outer file and processed with the `@include' command--should not start with `\input texinfo', as that has already been done by the outer file, and the character `\' has already been redefined to generate a backslash in the output. Instead, an `@include' file usually begins with a node; it lacks the beginning and ending of a Texinfo file that are described in the chapters on beginning and ending a file. *Note Beginning a File::, and *note Ending a File::. Likewise, an `@include' file should not end with `@bye', since that would terminate TeX processing immediately. Here is an example of a outer Texinfo file with `@include' files within it: \input texinfo @c -*-texinfo-*- @setfilename include @settitle Include Manual @setchapternewpage odd @titlepage @sp 12 @center @titlefont{Include Manual} @sp 2 @center by Whom Ever @page Copyright @copyright{} 1988 Free Software Foundation, Inc. @end titlepage @include foo.texinfo @include bar.texinfo @unnumbered Concept Index @printindex cp @summarycontents @contents @bye File: texinfo, Node: TeX Input, Next: Sample Permissions, Prev: Include Files, Up: Top TeX Input Initialization ************************ You must put an input command on the first line of every Texinfo file to tell TeX to use the `texinfo.tex' file when it is processing the Texinfo source file. Otherwise TeX will not know what to do with the @-commands. (The TeX input command is written as `\input texinfo'. *Note First Line::.) TeX needs to be told where to find the `texinfo.tex' file that you have told it to input. The preferred way to do this is to put `texinfo.tex' in the default inputs directory, which is the `/usr/lib/tex/macros' directory. If this is done (as it usually is when GNU Emacs is installed), TeX will find the file and you don't have to do anything. Alternatively, you can put `texinfo.tex' in the directory in which the Texinfo source file is located. However, you may want to specify the location of the `\input' file yourself. One way to do this is to write the complete path for the file after the `\input' command. Another way is to set the `TEXINPUTS' environment variable in your `.cshrc' or `.profile' file. The `TEXINPUTS' environment variable will tell TeX where to find the `texinfo.tex' file and any other file that you might want TeX to use. Whether you use a `.cshrc' or `.profile' file depends on whether you use `csh' or `sh' for your shell command interpreter. When you use `csh', it looks to the `.cshrc' file for initialization information, and when you use `sh', it looks to the `.profile' file. In a `.cshrc' file, you could use the following `csh' command sequence: setenv TEXINPUTS .:/usr/me/mylib:/usr/lib/tex/macros In a `.profile' file, you could use the following `sh' command sequence: TEXINPUTS=.:/usr/me/mylib:/usr/lib/tex/macros export TEXINPUTS This would cause TeX to look for `\input' file first in the current directory, indicated by the `.', then in a hypothetical user's `me/mylib' directory, and finally in the system library. File: texinfo, Node: Sample Permissions, Next: Command Index, Prev: TeX Input, Up: Top Standard text for Copying Permissions ************************************* Texinfo files should contain sections that tell the readers that they have the right to copy and distribute the Info file, the printed manual and any accompanying software. This appendix contains the standard text of the Free Software Foundation copying permission notice. For an example of the text that could be used for the Distribution, General Public License and NO WARRANTY sections of a document, see the latest version of the ``GNU Emacs Manual''. The texts of the Free Software Foundation copying permission notice in the `@ifinfo' section and in the `@titlepage' section are slightly different. The `@ifinfo' section usually begins with a line that says what the file documents. This is what a person looking at the file will first read if he or she reads the unprocessed Texinfo file or if he or she uses the advanced Info command `g *'. *note info: (info)Expert, for more information. (If the reader uses the regular Info commands, he or she will usually start reading at the first node and skip this first section, which is not in a node.) In the `@ifinfo' section, the summary sentence should be followed by a copyright notice and then by the copying permission notice. One of the copying permission paragraphs is enclosed in `@ignore' and `@end ignore' commands. This paragraph states that the Texinfo file can be processed through TeX and printed, provided the printed manual carries the proper copying permission notice. This paragraph is not made part of the Info file since it is not relevant to the Info file; but it is a mandatory part of the Texinfo file since it permits people to process the Texinfo file in TeX. In the printed manual, the Free Software Foundation copying permission notice follows the copyright notice and publishing information and is located within the region delineated by the `@titlepage' and `@end titlepage' commands. The copying permission notice is exactly the same as the notice in the `@ifinfo' section except that the paragraph enclosed in `@ignore' and `@end ignore' commands is not part of the notice. To make it simpler to copy the permission notice into each section of the Texinfo file, the complete permission notices for each section are reproduced in full below even though most of the information is redundant. Note that you my have to specify the correct name of a section mentioned in the permission notice. For example, in the ``GDB Manual'', the name of the section referring to the General Public License is called the "GDB General Public License", but in the sample shown below, that section is referred to generically as the "General Public License". * Menu: * Ifinfo Permissions:: * Titlepage Permissions:: File: texinfo, Node: Ifinfo Permissions, Next: Titlepage Permissions, Prev: Sample Permissions, Up: Sample Permissions Ifinfo Copying Permissions ========================== In the `@ifinfo' section of the Texinfo file, the standard Free Software Foundation permission notices reads as follows: This file documents ...
