I have set (setq Info-hide-note-references 'hide) and now things are better. Thanks for your help. Problem solved. Have a great night. PS: I hate when programs try to be smart, like Emacs was trying to be. Because, then I need to bother people with specialized knowleadge, when this thing should be solved by me picking up the source code and doing some modification. Emacs is doing wrong in this regard, because Emacs should not change the info file output.
