Aha. From http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gdb-patches/2000-q1/msg00904.html: ---8 The problem with @ifnottex in Texinfo 3.12 are actually a bug/misfeature in that version: conditionals such as @ifnottex cannot span node boundaries.

(So the @top node can be wrapped in @ifnottex, for example.) This was done during the (long) pretest of Texinfo 4.0. ---8 Let me think about whether we can avoid using @ifnottex across these node boundaries. Ah, sorry, I should have mentioned the makeinfo version I'm using. 3.12, yes, NetBSD still has it in the main source. Thanks for the fix. :) Masao --- |_ -|--|- _|__ /|\/|\ ___ Bug-guile mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-guile
