What I want to do is to refer an HTML or PDF document from an Info document. So
I want the info browser to launch the web browser for it to open a
« file: » protocol document.
Here is the Texinfo source which I would like to use:
--8<----8<----8<----8<----8<-- begin -->8---->8---->8---->8---->8----
\input texinfo @c -*-texinfo-*-
@c %**start of header
@setfilename svnbook.info
@settitle Manuel Subversion 1.8
@c %**end of header
@dircategory Archiving
@direntry
* SVN book: (svnbook). Gestion de versions avec Subversion
@end direntry
@node Top
@top SVN Book
@url{file:///c%3A/Program%20Files/CollabNet/Subversion%20Client/doc/svn-book-html-chunk/index.html,SVN
book}
@bye
@c Lo
cal Variables:
@c compile-command: "makeinfo svnbook.texi && copy svnbook.info
c:\\Nos_Programmes\\MinGW\\msys\\info\\"
@c End:
--8<----8<----8<----8<----8<-- end -->8---->8---->8---->8---->8----

No, Texinfo cross-references work in any format supported by Texinfo.
If your link should only appear in the HTML version, you could use the
@ifhtml..@end ifhtml conditional, and similarly with links that should
only appear in PDF (i.e. printed version) of the manual. There's also
@ifnotinfo etc.
So once again I don't think I understand the problem. Could you
perhaps elaborate, or show an actual example?
