Subject: PATCH: Fix stupidity in makeinfo 3.12f
Date: Tue, 10 Aug 1999 15:55:13 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <990810155513.ZM652@candle.brasslantern.com> (raw)
I don't know what "3.12f" is -- I have 3.12 here, 3.12f is at work -- but
"makeinfo zsh.texi" dies with
./zsh.texi:976: Use braces to give a command as an argument to @'.
./zsh.texi:983: Use braces to give a command as an argument to @'.
./zsh.texi:983: Use braces to give a command as an argument to @'.
(repeats for every use of @value{dsq})
Apparently @'<letter> is now the way to insert an accented <letter>. Same
for @" and @` for different accents.
It appears that the workaround for zsh is as follows (patch against 3.1.6):
Index: ztexi.yo

If anyone knows of a better way to accomplish this, please let us know.
