Hi Nikos --
@macro showenumdesc{ref,cap}
@float Figure,\ref\
This is a figure
@caption{\cap\}
@end float
@end macroHmm, works for me with the latest texinfo.tex. http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/texinfo/texinfo.tex But in general, I strongly recommend staying away from macros when at all possible. They cause no end of grief. karl
