-
- Catching Errors with TeX Formatting
- ===================================
-
- You can also catch mistakes when you format a file with TeX.
-
- Usually, you will want to do this after you have run
- `texinfo-format-buffer' (or, better, `makeinfo-buffer') on the same
- file, because `texinfo-format-buffer' sometimes displays error messages
- that make more sense than TeX. (*Note Debugging with Info::, for more
- information.)
-
- For example, TeX was run on a Texinfo file, part of which is shown
- here:
-
- ---------- Buffer: texinfo.texi ----------
- name of the Texinfo file as an extension. The
- @samp{??} are `wildcards' that cause the shell to
- substitute all the raw index files. (@xref{sorting
- indices, for more information about sorting
- indices.)@refill
- ---------- Buffer: texinfo.texi ----------
-
- (The cross reference lacks a closing brace.) TeX produced the
- following output, after which it stopped:
-
- ---------- Buffer: *tex-shell* ----------
- Runaway argument?
- {sorting indices, for more information about sorting
- indices.) @refill @ETC.
- ! Paragraph ended before @xref was complete.
- <to be read again>
- @par
- l.27
-
- ?
- ---------- Buffer: *tex-shell* ----------
-
- In this case, TeX produced an accurate and understandable error
- message:
-
- Paragraph ended before @xref was complete.
-
- `@par' is an internal TeX command of no relevance to Texinfo. `l.27'
- means that TeX detected the problem on line 27 of the Texinfo file.
- The `?' is the prompt TeX uses in this circumstance.
-
- Unfortunately, TeX is not always so helpful, and sometimes you must
- truly be a Sherlock Holmes to discover what went wrong.
-
- In any case, if you run into a problem like this, you can do one of
- three things.
-
- 1. You can tell TeX to continue running and ignore just this error by
- typing <RET> at the `?' prompt.
-
- 2. You can tell TeX to continue running and to ignore all errors as
- best it can by typing `r <RET>' at the `?' prompt.
-
- This is often the best thing to do. However, beware: the one error
- may produce a cascade of additional error messages as its
- consequences are felt through the rest of the file. To stop TeX
- when it is producing such an avalanche of error messages, type
- `C-c' (or `C-c C-c', if you are running a shell inside Emacs).
-
- 3. You can tell TeX to stop this run by typing `x <RET>' at the `?'
- prompt.
-
- Please note that if you are running TeX inside Emacs, you need to
- switch to the shell buffer and line at which TeX offers the `?' prompt.
-
- Sometimes TeX will format a file without producing error messages even
- though there is a problem. This usually occurs if a command is not
- ended but TeX is able to continue processing anyhow. For example, if
- you fail to end an itemized list with the `@end itemize' command, TeX
- will write a DVI file that you can print out. The only error message
- that TeX will give you is the somewhat mysterious comment that
-
- (@end occurred inside a group at level 1)
-
- However, if you print the DVI file, you will find that the text of the
- file that follows the itemized list is entirely indented as if it were
- part of the last item in the itemized list. The error message is the
- way TeX says that it expected to find an `@end' command somewhere in
- the file; but that it could not determine where it was needed.
-
- Another source of notoriously hard-to-find errors is a missing `@end
- group' command. If you ever are stumped by incomprehensible errors,
- look for a missing `@end group' command first.
-
- If the Texinfo file lacks header lines, TeX may stop in the beginning
- of its run and display output that looks like the following. The `*'
- indicates that TeX is waiting for input.
-
- This is TeX, Version 3.14159 (Web2c 7.0)
- (test.texinfo [1])
- *
-
- In this case, simply type `\end <RET>' after the asterisk. Then write
- the header lines in the Texinfo file and run the TeX command again.
- (Note the use of the backslash, `\'. TeX uses `\' instead of `@'; and
- in this circumstance, you are working directly with TeX, not with
- Texinfo.)

-
- 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, the `texinfo-show-structure' command
- lists all the lines that begin with the @-commands that specify the
- structure: `@chapter', `@section', `@appendix', and so on. With an
- argument (`C-u' as prefix argument, if interactive), the command also
- shows the `@node' lines. The `texinfo-show-structure' command is bound
- to `C-c C-s' in Texinfo mode, by default.
-
- The lines are displayed in a buffer called the `*Occur*' buffer,
- indented by hierarchical level. For example, here is a part of what was
- produced by running `texinfo-show-structure' on this manual:
-
- Lines matching "^@\\(chapter \\|sect\\|subs\\|subh\\|
- unnum\\|major\\|chapheading \\|heading \\|appendix\\)"
- in buffer texinfo.texi.
- ...
- 4177:@chapter Nodes
- 4198: @heading Two Paths
- 4231: @section Node and Menu Illustration
- 4337: @section The @code{@@node} Command
- 4393: @subheading Choosing Node and Pointer Names
- 4417: @subsection How to Write an @code{@@node} Line
- 4469: @subsection @code{@@node} Line Tips
- ...
-
- This says that lines 4337, 4393, and 4417 of `texinfo.texi' begin
- with the `@section', `@subheading', and `@subsection' commands
- 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 Using Occur: (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 Using Regular Expressions: (emacs)Regexps, for more information.
-
- When you invoke the `texinfo-show-structure' command, Emacs will
- display 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 n' (`narrow-to-region') command to mark the region.
- (*Note Narrowing: (emacs)Narrowing.) This is how the example used
- above was generated. (To see the whole buffer again, use `C-x n w'
- (`widen').)
-
- If you call `texinfo-show-structure' with a prefix argument by typing
- `C-u C-c C-s', it will list lines beginning with `@node' as well as the
- lines beginning with the @-sign commands for `@chapter', `@section',
- and the like.
-
- 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.
-
- File: texinfo.info, Node: Using occur, Next: Running Info-Validate, Prev: Using texinfo-show-structure, Up: Catching Mistakes
-
- 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 directly. 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 Regular Expressions:
- (emacs)Regexps.) The `occur' command 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 Using Occur: (emacs)Other Repeating Search, for more
- information.
-
- File: texinfo.info, Node: Running Info-Validate, Prev: Using occur, Up: Catching Mistakes
-
- Finding Badly Referenced Nodes
- ==============================
-
- You can use the `Info-validate' command to check whether any of the
- `Next', `Previous', `Up' or other node pointers fail to point to a
- node. This command checks that every node pointer points to an
- existing node. The `Info-validate' command works only on Info files,
- not on Texinfo files.
-
- The `makeinfo' program validates pointers automatically, so you do
- not need to use the `Info-validate' command if you are using
- `makeinfo'. You only may need to use `Info-validate' if you are unable
- to run `makeinfo' and instead must create an Info file using
- `texinfo-format-region' or `texinfo-format-buffer', or if you write an
- Info file from scratch.

- * Splitting:: How to split a file manually.
-
- File: texinfo.info, Node: Using Info-validate, Next: Unsplit, Prev: Running Info-Validate, Up: Running Info-Validate
-
- Running `Info-validate'
- -----------------------
-
- To use `Info-validate', visit the Info file you wish to check and
- type:
-
- M-x Info-validate
-
- (Note that the `Info-validate' command requires an upper case `I'. You
- may also need to create a tag table before running `Info-validate'.
- *Note Tagifying::.)
-
- If your file is valid, 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 do not 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 entries and cross references
- point to actual nodes.
-
- Note that `Info-validate' requires a tag table and does not work with
- files that have been split. (The `texinfo-format-buffer' command
- automatically splits large files.) 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 you must create a tag table
- for the unsplit file.
-
- File: texinfo.info, Node: Unsplit, Next: Tagifying, Prev: Using Info-validate, Up: Running Info-Validate
-
- Creating an Unsplit File
- ------------------------
-
- You can run `Info-validate' only on a single Info file that has a tag
- table. The command will not work on the indirect subfiles that are
- generated when a master file is split. If you have a large file
- (longer than 70,000 bytes or so), you need to run the
- `texinfo-format-buffer' or `makeinfo-buffer' command in such a way that
- it does not create indirect subfiles. You will also need to create a
- tag table for the Info file. After you have done this, you can run
- `Info-validate' and look for badly referenced nodes.
-
- The first step is to create an unsplit Info file. To prevent
- `texinfo-format-buffer' 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
-
- or else
-
- C-u C-c C-e C-b
-
- When you do this, Texinfo will not split the file and will not create a
- tag table for it.
-
- File: texinfo.info, Node: Tagifying, Next: Splitting, Prev: Unsplit, Up: Running Info-Validate
-
- Tagifying a File
- ----------------
-
- After creating an unsplit Info file, you must create a tag table for
- it. Visit the Info file you wish to tagify and type:
-
- M-x Info-tagify
-
- (Note the upper case `I' in `Info-tagify'.) This creates an Info file
- with a tag table that you can validate.
-
- The third step is to validate the Info file:
-
- M-x Info-validate
-
- (Note the upper case `I' in `Info-validate'.) In brief, the steps are:
-
- C-u M-x texinfo-format-buffer
- M-x Info-tagify
- M-x Info-validate
-
- After you have validated the node structure, you can rerun
- `texinfo-format-buffer' in the normal way so it will construct a tag
- table and split the file automatically, or you can make the tag table
- and split the file manually.
-
- File: texinfo.info, Node: Splitting, Prev: Tagifying, Up: Running Info-Validate
-
- Splitting a File Manually
- -------------------------
-
- You should split a large file or else let the `texinfo-format-buffer'
- or `makeinfo-buffer' command do it for you automatically. (Generally
- you will let one of the formatting commands do this job for you. *Note
- Create 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.
-
- If an Info file has more than 30 nodes, you should also make a tag
- table for it. *Note Using Info-validate::, for information about
- creating a tag table. (Again, tag tables are usually created
- automatically by the formatting command; you only need to create a tag
- table yourself if you are doing the job manually. Most likely, you
- will do this for a large, unsplit file on which you have run
- `Info-validate'.)
-
- Visit the Info file you wish to tagify and split and type the two
- commands:
-
- M-x Info-tagify
- M-x Info-split
-
- (Note that the `I' in `Info' is upper case.)
-
- 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.info, Node: Refilling Paragraphs, Next: Command Syntax, Prev: Catching Mistakes, Up: Top
-
- Refilling Paragraphs
- ********************
-
- The `@refill' command refills and, optionally, indents the first line
- of a paragraph.(1) (*note Refilling Paragraphs-Footnotes::) The
- `@refill' command is no longer important, but we describe it here
- because you once needed it. You will see it in many old Texinfo files.
-
- Without refilling, paragraphs containing long @-constructs may look
- bad after formatting because the formatter removes @-commands and
- shortens some lines more than others. In the past, neither the
- `texinfo-format-region' command nor the `texinfo-format-buffer' command
- refilled paragraphs automatically. The `@refill' command had to be
- written at the end of every paragraph to cause these formatters to fill
- them. (Both TeX and `makeinfo' have always refilled paragraphs
- automatically.) Now, all the Info formatters automatically fill and
- indent those paragraphs that need to be filled and indented.
-
- The `@refill' command causes `texinfo-format-region' and
- `texinfo-format-buffer' to refill a paragraph in the Info file *after*
- all the other processing has been done. For this reason, you can not
- use `@refill' with a paragraph containing either `@*' or `@w{ ... }'
- since the refilling action will override those two commands.
-
- The `texinfo-format-region' and `texinfo-format-buffer' commands now
- automatically append `@refill' to the end of each paragraph that should
- be filled. They do not append `@refill' to the ends of paragraphs that
- contain `@*' or `@w{ ...}' and therefore do not refill or indent them.
-
- File: texinfo.info, Node: Refilling Paragraphs-Footnotes, Up: Refilling Paragraphs
-
- (1) Perhaps the command should have been called the
- `@refillandindent' command, but `@refill' is shorter and the name was
- chosen before indenting was possible.
-
- File: texinfo.info, Node: Command Syntax, Next: Obtaining TeX, Prev: Refilling Paragraphs, Up: Top
-
- @-Command Syntax
- ****************
-
- The character `@' is used to start special Texinfo commands. (It has
- the same meaning that `\' has in plain TeX.) Texinfo has four types of
- @-command:
-
- 1. Non-alphabetic commands.
- These commands consist of an @ followed by a punctuation mark or
- other character that is not part of the alphabet. Non-alphabetic
- commands are almost always part of the text within a paragraph,
- and never take any argument. The two characters (@ and the other
- one) are complete in themselves; none is followed by braces. The
- non-alphabetic commands are: `@.', `@:', `@*', `@SPACE', `@TAB',
- `@NL', `@@', `@{', and `@}'.
-
- 2. Alphabetic commands that do not require arguments.
- These commands start with @ followed by a word followed by left-
- and right-hand braces. These commands insert special symbols in
- the document; they do not require arguments. For example,
- `@dots{}' => `...', `@equiv{}' => `==', `@TeX{}' => `TeX', and
- `@bullet{}' => `*'.
-
- 3. Alphabetic commands that require arguments within braces.
- These commands start with @ 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.'
-
- 4. Alphabetic commands that occupy an entire line.
- These commands occupy an entire line. The line starts with @,
- followed by the name of the command (a word); for example,
- `@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. Braces are not used.
-
- Thus, the alphabetic commands fall into classes that have different
- argument syntaxes. You cannot tell to which class a command belongs by
- the appearance of its name, but you can tell by the command's meaning:
- if the command stands for a glyph, it is in class 2 and does not
- require an argument; if it makes sense to use the command together with
- other text as part of a paragraph, the command is in class 3 and must
- be followed by an argument in braces; otherwise, it is in class 4 and
- uses the rest of the line as its argument.
-
- The purpose of having a different syntax for commands of classes 3 and
- 4 is to make Texinfo files 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 and does *not*
- require braces. `@refill' never confuses the Emacs paragraph commands
- because it cannot appear at the beginning of a line.
