I've been pawing thru this group and googling to find a few commands to generate an index from a manual already in texinfo format.
Lots of hits but not really seeing how its done... Instead I find lengthy complicated descriptions of index types and etc. I usually use the info browser thru emacs and I've found some of the entries in the manual (gawk comes to mind) are not indexed. Or I guess that is what I'm seeing. C h i m gawk <RET> Brings up the gawk manual alright but then pressing `i' for an index search tells me `no index'. I'm pretty sure in the past gawk had an index since I recall looking up the printf function a few times. But long long ago. Perhaps this means something is wrong with my installation of texinfo? I'm seem to recall having generated indexs in the past and I know nearly nothing about texinfo so it must not have been too involved. How can I create an index so that pressing `i' in gawk manual allows me to do an index search? _______________________________________________ Texinfo home page: http://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-texinfo
