This is especially true if you +are revising or adding to a Texinfo file that someone else has written. + +In GNU Emacs, in Texinfo mode, there is a command that will list all +the lines that begin with the @-commands that specify the structure: +@node, @chapter, @section, @appendix and so on. This is the +`texinfo-show-structure' command. It is bound to the keyboard +command `C-c C-s'. `texinfo-show-structure' displays the lines that +begin with the node and chapter structuring @-commands in another +window called the `*Occur*' buffer. For example, when +`texinfo-show-structure' is run on the first part of this chapter, it +produces the following: + + Lines matching + "^@\\(chapter\\|unnum\\|appendix\\|sect\\|sub\\|heading\\|major + \\|node\\)" in buffer new-texinfo-manual.texinfo. + 2:@node catching mistakes, @-Command Syntax, running info, top + 4:@chapter Catching Mistakes + 41:@node debugging with info, debugging with tex, , catching mistakes + 43:@section Catching errors with Info Formatting + +This means that lines 2, 4, 41 and 43 began with `@node', `@chapter', +`@node', and `@section' respectively. If you move your cursor into +the `*Occur*' window, you can position the cursor over one of the +lines and use the `C-c C-c' command (`occur-mode-goto-occurrence'), +to jump to the corresponding spot in the Texinfo file. *Note : +(emacs)Other Repeating Search, for more information about +`occur-mode-goto-occurrence'. + +The first line in the `*Occur*' window describes the "regular +expression" specified by TEXINFO-HEADING-PATTERN. This regular +expression is the pattern that `texinfo-show-structure' looks for. +*Note : (emacs)Regexps, for more information. + +When you give the `texinfo-show-structure' command, it will show the +structure of the whole buffer. If you want to see the structure of +just a part of the buffer, of one chapter, for example, use the `C-x +n' (`narrow-to-region') command to mark the region. (*Note : +(emacs)Narrowing.) This is how the example used above was generated. +(To see the whole buffer again, use `C-x w' (`widen').) + +You can remind yourself of the structure of a Texinfo file by looking +at the list in the `*Occur*' window; and if you have mis-named a node +or left out a section, you can correct the mistake. + +* Menu: + +* Using Occur:: + + + +File: texinfo, Node: Using Occur, Prev: Using texinfo-show-structure, Up: Using texinfo-show-structure + +Using `occur' +------------- + +Sometimes the `texinfo-show-structure' command produces too much +information. Perhaps you want to remind yourself of the overall +structure of a Texinfo file, and are overwhelmed by the detailed list +produced by `texinfo-show-structure'. In this case, you can use the +`occur' command itself. To do this, type + + `M-x occur' + +and then, when prompted, type a "regexp", a regular expression for +the pattern you want to match. (*Note : (emacs)Regexps.) `occur' +works from the current location of the cursor in the buffer to the +end of the buffer. If you want to run `occur' on the whole buffer, +place the cursor at the beginning of the buffer. For example, to see +all the lines that contain the word `@chapter' in them, just type +`@chapter'. This will produce a list of the chapters. It will also +list all the sentences with `@chapter' in the middle of the line. If +you want to see only those lines that start with the word `@chapter', +type `^@chapter' when prompted by `occur'. If you want to see all +the lines that end with a word or phrase, end the last word with a +`$'; for example, `catching mistakes$'. This can be helpful when you +want to see all the nodes that are part of the same chapter or +section and therefore have the same `Up' pointer. + +*Note : (emacs)Other Repeating Search, for more information. + + + +File: texinfo, Node: Running Info-Validate, Prev: Using texinfo-show-structure, Up: Catching Mistakes + +Finding Badly Referenced Nodes +============================== + +You can check whether any of the `Next', `Previous', `Up' or other +node pointers fail to point to a node with the `Info-validate' command. +This command checks that every node pointer points to an existing node. + +To use this command, you first need to load the `info' library and +then do `M-x Info-validate'. + + `M-x load-library RET info RET' + `M-x Info-validate' + +(Note that all the `Info' commands require an uppercase `I'.) + +If your file is ok, you will receive a message that says "File +appears valid". However, if you have a pointer that does not point +to a node, error messages will be displayed in a buffer called +`*problems in info file*'. + +For example, `Info-validate' was run on a test file that contained +only the first node of this manual. One of the messages said: + + In node "Overview", invalid Next: Texinfo Mode + +This meant that the node called `Overview' had a `Next' pointer that +did not point to anything (which was true in this case, since the +test file had only one node in it). + +Now suppose we add a node named `Texinfo Mode' to our test case but +we don't specify a `Previous' for this node. Then we will get the +following error message: + + In node "Texinfo Mode", should have Previous: Overview + +This is because every `Next' pointer should be matched by a +`Previous' (in the node where the `Next' points) which points back. + +`Info-validate' also checks that all menu items and cross-references +point to actual nodes. + +Significantly, `Info-validate' does not work with large files that +have been split. (Info thinks of a large file as being over 100,000 +bytes, approximately.) In order to use `Info-validate' on a large +file, you must run `texinfo-format-buffer' with an argument so that +it does not split the Info file, and then create a tag table. + +* Menu: + +* Info-Validating a Large File:: Running `Info-validate' on a large file. +* Splitting:: Splitting a file manually. + + + +File: texinfo, Node: Info-Validating a Large File, Next: Splitting, Prev: Running Info-Validate, Up: Running Info-Validate + +Running `Info-validate' on a Large File. +---------------------------------------- + +You can run `Info-validate' only on a single Info file. The command +will not work on indirect subfiles that are generated when the master +file is split. If you have a large file (longer than 100,000 bytes), +you need to run the `texinfo-format-buffer' command in such a way +that it does not create indirect subfiles. You will also need to +create a tag table. When you have done this, you can run +`Info-validate' and look for badly referenced nodes. + +After you have validated the node structure, you can rerun +`texinfo-format-buffer' in the normal way so it will construct the +tag table and split the file automatically or, you can make the tag +table and split the file manually. + +To prevent the `texinfo-format-buffer' command from splitting a +Texinfo file into smaller Info files, give a prefix to the `M-x +texinfo-format-buffer' command: + + C-u M-x texinfo-format-buffer + +When you do this, Texinfo will not split the file and will not create +a tag table for it. + +Before you can run `M-x Info-validate' on the Info file, you need to +create a tag table for it. In order to do this, you first need to +load the `info' library into Emacs with the following command: + + M-x load-library RET info RET + +Then you can give the command: + + M-x Info-tagify + +This creates a file which you can validate. + + M-x Info-validate + +After you have checked the validity of the nodes, you can either run +`M-x texinfo-format-buffer' as you would normally, or else tagify and +split the file manually with the two commands `Info-tagify' and +`Info-split'. + + + +File: texinfo, Node: Splitting, Prev: Info-Validating a Large File, Up: Running Info-Validate + +Splitting a File Manually +------------------------- + +If the file has more than 100,000 or so bytes in it, you should split +it or else let the `texinfo-format-buffer' command do it for you +automatically. (Generally you will let `texinfo-format-buffer' do +this job for you. *Note Creating an Info File::.) + +The split off files are called the indirect subfiles. + +Info files are split to save memory. With smaller files, Emacs does +not have make such a large buffer to hold the information. This way, +Emacs can save memory. + +If the Info file has more than 30 nodes, you should also make a tag +table for it. *Note Info-Validating a Large File::, for information +about creating a tag table. + +Before running `Info-split', you need to load the `info' library into +Emacs by giving the command `M-x load-library RET info RET'. After +you have done this, you can give the two commands: + + M-x Info-tagify + M-x Info-split + +(Note that the `I' in `Info' is uppercase.) + +When you use the `Info-split' command, the buffer is modified into a +(small) Info file which lists the indirect subfiles. This file +should be saved in place of the original visited file. The indirect +subfiles are written in the same directory the original file is in, +with names generated by appending `-' and a number to the original +file name. + +The primary file still functions as an Info file, but it contains +just the tag table and a directory of subfiles. + + + +File: texinfo, Node: Command Syntax, Next: Include Files, Prev: Catching Mistakes, Up: Top + +@-Command Syntax +**************** + +The character `@' is used to start special Texinfo commands. (It has +the same meaning that `\' has in plain TeX.) Syntactically, there +are three classes of @-commands: + +1. Non-alphabetic commands: @ followed by a punctuation character. + These commands are always part of the text within a paragraph, + and never take any argument. The two characters (@ and the + other one) are complete in themselves. For example, `@.', `@:', + `@{' and `@}'. + +2. Alphabetic commands used within a paragraph. + These commands have @ followed by a letter or a word, followed + by an argument within braces. For example, the command `@dfn' + indicates the introductory or defining use of a term; it is used + as follows: `In Texinfo, @-commands are @dfn{mark-up} commands.' + +3. Alphabetic commands used outside of paragraphs. + Each such command occupies an entire line. The line starts with + @, followed by the name of the command (a word) such as + `@center' or `@cindex'. If no argument is needed, the word is + followed by the end of the line. If there is an argument, it is + separated from the command name by a space. + +Thus, the alphabetic commands fall into two classes that have +different argument syntax. You cannot tell which class a command +falls in by the appearance of its name, but you can tell by the +command's meaning: if it makes sense to use the command together with +other words as part of a paragraph, the command is in class 2 and +must be followed by an argument in braces; otherwise, it is in class +3 and uses the rest of the line as its argument. + +The purpose of having different syntax for commands of classes 2 and +3 is to make the Texinfo file easier to read, and also to help the +GNU Emacs paragraph and filling commands work properly. There is +only one exception to this rule: the command `@refill', which is +always used at the end of a paragraph immediately following the final +period or other punctuation character. `@refill' takes no argument. +`@refill' never confuses the Emacs paragraph commands because it +cannot start at the beginning of a line. + + + +File: texinfo, Node: Include Files, Next: TeX Input, Prev: Command Syntax, Up: Top + +Include Files +************* + +When Info was first created, it was customary to create many small +Info files on one subject. By doing this, Emacs did not have to make +a large buffer to hold the whole of a large Info file; instead, Emacs +allocated just enough memory for the small Info file that was needed +at the time. This way, Emacs could avoid wasting memory. Include +files were designed as a way to create a single, large printed manual +out of several smaller Info files. + +However, because large Info files can now be split, include files are +no longer strictly necessary and they are used infrequently. Most +often, they are now used in projects where several different people +are writing different sections of a document simultaneously. + +How Include Files Work +====================== + +In a Texinfo file, a line of the form `@include `filename'' is +ignored when the Info file is generated, but in a printed manual it +causes the contents of the file `filename' to be processed and +included in the manual. The contents of the file `filename' can be +ignored by Info because the first file can refer to `filename' with +menus as well as cross references. In the Info system, all the +information is, as it were, `in one place'. However, when two +printed manuals are made from two separate Texinfo files, the two +manuals are separate, and even if they give each other as references, +the references are to separate documents. Consequently, you will +sometimes want to create a comprehensive, printed manual that +contains all the necessary information together in one place. + +`@include' files are special Texinfo files that are used only for +making such a comprehensive manual. They are listed inside an outer +file that contains nothing but the beginning and end matter of a +Texinfo file and a number of `@include' commands listing the included +files. + +An `@include' file--a file that will be listed inside an outer file +and processed with the `@include' command--should not start with +`\input texinfo', as that has already been done by the outer file, +and the character `\' has already been redefined to generate a +backslash in the output. Instead, an `@include' file usually begins +with a node; it lacks the beginning and ending of a Texinfo file that +are described in the chapters on beginning and ending a file. *Note +Beginning a File::, and *note Ending a File::. + +Likewise, an `@include' file should not end with `@bye', since that +would terminate TeX processing immediately. + +Here is an example of a outer Texinfo file with `@include' files +within it: + + \input texinfo @c -*-texinfo-*- + @setfilename include + @settitle Include Manual + + @setchapternewpage odd + @titlepage + @sp 12 + @center @titlefont{Include Manual} + @sp 2 + @center by Whom Ever + + @page + Copyright @copyright{} 1988 Free Software Foundation, Inc. + @end titlepage + + @include foo.texinfo + @include bar.texinfo + + @unnumbered Concept Index + @printindex cp + + @summarycontents + @contents + + @bye + + + +File: texinfo, Node: TeX Input, Next: Sample Permissions, Prev: Include Files, Up: Top + +TeX Input Initialization +************************ + +You must put an input command on the first line of every Texinfo file +to tell TeX to use the `texinfo.tex' file when it is processing the +Texinfo source file. Otherwise TeX will not know what to do with the +@-commands. (The TeX input command is written as `\input texinfo'. +*Note First Line::.) + +TeX needs to be told where to find the `texinfo.tex' file that you +have told it to input. The preferred way to do this is to put +`texinfo.tex' in the default inputs directory, which is the +`/usr/lib/tex/macros' directory. If this is done (as it usually is +when GNU Emacs is installed), TeX will find the file and you don't +have to do anything. Alternatively, you can put `texinfo.tex' in the +directory in which the Texinfo source file is located. + +However, you may want to specify the location of the `\input' file +yourself. One way to do this is to write the complete path for the +file after the `\input' command. Another way is to set the +`TEXINPUTS' environment variable in your `.cshrc' or `.profile' file. +The `TEXINPUTS' environment variable will tell TeX where to find the +`texinfo.tex' file and any other file that you might want TeX to use. + +Whether you use a `.cshrc' or `.profile' file depends on whether you +use `csh' or `sh' for your shell command interpreter. When you use +`csh', it looks to the `.cshrc' file for initialization information, +and when you use `sh', it looks to the `.profile' file. + +In a `.cshrc' file, you could use the following `csh' command sequence: + + setenv TEXINPUTS .:/usr/me/mylib:/usr/lib/tex/macros + +In a `.profile' file, you could use the following `sh' command +sequence: + + TEXINPUTS=.:/usr/me/mylib:/usr/lib/tex/macros + export TEXINPUTS + +This would cause TeX to look for `\input' file first in the current +directory, indicated by the `.', then in a hypothetical user's +`me/mylib' directory, and finally in the system library. + + + +File: texinfo, Node: Sample Permissions, Next: Command Index, Prev: TeX Input, Up: Top + +Standard text for Copying Permissions +************************************* + +Texinfo files should contain sections that tell the readers that they +have the right to copy and distribute the Info file, the printed +manual and any accompanying software. This appendix contains the +standard text of the Free Software Foundation copying permission +notice. For an example of the text that could be used for the +Distribution, General Public License and NO WARRANTY sections of a +document, see the latest version of the ``GNU Emacs Manual''. + +The texts of the Free Software Foundation copying permission notice +in the `@ifinfo' section and in the `@titlepage' section are slightly +different. + +The `@ifinfo' section usually begins with a line that says what the +file documents. This is what a person looking at the file will first +read if he or she reads the unprocessed Texinfo file or if he or she +uses the advanced Info command `g *'. *note info: (info)Expert, for +more information. (If the reader uses the regular Info commands, he +or she will usually start reading at the first node and skip this +first section, which is not in a node.) + +In the `@ifinfo' section, the summary sentence should be followed by +a copyright notice and then by the copying permission notice. One of +the copying permission paragraphs is enclosed in `@ignore' and `@end +ignore' commands. This paragraph states that the Texinfo file can be +processed through TeX and printed, provided the printed manual +carries the proper copying permission notice. This paragraph is not +made part of the Info file since it is not relevant to the Info file; +but it is a mandatory part of the Texinfo file since it permits +people to process the Texinfo file in TeX. + +In the printed manual, the Free Software Foundation copying +permission notice follows the copyright notice and publishing +information and is located within the region delineated by the +`@titlepage' and `@end titlepage' commands. The copying permission +notice is exactly the same as the notice in the `@ifinfo' section +except that the paragraph enclosed in `@ignore' and `@end ignore' +commands is not part of the notice. + +To make it simpler to copy the permission notice into each section of +the Texinfo file, the complete permission notices for each section +are reproduced in full below even though most of the information is +redundant. + +Note that you my have to specify the correct name of a section +mentioned in the permission notice. For example, in the ``GDB +Manual'', the name of the section referring to the General Public +License is called the "GDB General Public License", but in the sample +shown below, that section is referred to generically as the "General +Public License". + +* Menu: + +* Ifinfo Permissions:: +* Titlepage Permissions:: + + + +File: texinfo, Node: Ifinfo Permissions, Next: Titlepage Permissions, Prev: Sample Permissions, Up: Sample Permissions + +Ifinfo Copying Permissions +========================== + +In the `@ifinfo' section of the Texinfo file, the standard Free +Software Foundation permission notices reads as follows: + + This file documents ... + + Copyright 1988 Free Software Foundation, Inc. + + Permission is granted to make and distribute verbatim copies of + this manual provided the copyright notice and this permission notice + are preserved on all copies. + + @ignore + Permission is granted to process this file through TeX and print the + results, provided the printed document carries a copying permission + notice identical to this one except for the removal of this paragraph + (this paragraph not being relevant to the printed manual). + + @end ignore + Permission is granted to copy and distribute modified versions of this + manual under the conditions for verbatim copying, provided also that the + sections entitled ``Distribution'' and ``General Public License'' are + included exactly as in the original, and provided that the entire + resulting derived work is distributed under the terms of a permission + notice identical to this one. + + Permission is granted to copy and distribute translations of this manual + into another language, under the above conditions for modified versions, + except that the sections entitled ``Distribution'' and ``General Public + License'' may be included in a translation approved by the author instead + of in the original English. + + + +File: texinfo, Node: Titlepage Permissions, Prev: Ifinfo Permissions, Up: Sample Permissions + +Titlepage Copying Permissions +============================= + +In the `@titlepage' section of the Texinfo file, the standard Free +Software Foundation copying permission notices follows the copyright +notice and publishing information.
