26 ;; Known bug: update commands fail to ignore @ignore, and fail to DTRT
27 ;; with the @if... directives (so expect trouble when the manual uses
28 ;; different @node lines or @menu items in @iftex and in @ifnottex).
30 ;; Summary: how to use the updating commands
32 ;; The node and menu updating functions automatically
34 ;; * insert missing `@node' lines,
35 ;; * insert the `Next', `Previous' and `Up' pointers of a node,
36 ;; * insert or update the menu for a section,
37 ;; * create a master menu for a Texinfo source file.
39 ;; With a prefix argument, the `texinfo-update-node' and
40 ;; `texinfo-make-menu' functions do their jobs in the region.
42 ;; Important note: We do NOT recommend use of these commands to update
43 ;; the `Next', `Previous' and `Up' pointers on @node lines. Most
44 ;; manuals, including those whose Texinfo files adhere to the structure
45 ;; described below, don't need these pointers, because makeinfo will
46 ;; generate them automatically (see the node "makeinfo Pointer
47 ;; Creation" in the Texinfo manual). By contrast, due to known bugs
48 ;; described above, texinfo-update-node etc. could produce incorrect
49 ;; pointers, and thus make a perfectly valid Texinfo file into an
50 ;; invalid one. You _have_ been warned!
52 ;; In brief, the functions for creating or updating nodes and menus, are:
54 ;; texinfo-update-node (&optional beginning end)
55 ;; texinfo-every-node-update ()
56 ;; texinfo-sequential-node-update (&optional region-p)
58 ;; texinfo-make-menu (&optional beginning end)
59 ;; texinfo-all-menus-update ()
60 ;; texinfo-master-menu ()
62 ;; texinfo-insert-node-lines (&optional title-p)
64 ;; texinfo-indent-menu-description (column &optional region-p)
66 ;; The `texinfo-column-for-description' variable specifies the column to
67 ;; which menu descriptions are indented.
69 ;; Texinfo file structure
70 ;; ----------------------
72 ;; To use the updating commands, you must structure your Texinfo file
73 ;; hierarchically. Each `@node' line, with the exception of the top
74 ;; node, must be accompanied by some kind of section line, such as an
75 ;; `@chapter' or `@section' line. Each node-line/section-line
76 ;; combination must look like this:
78 ;; @node Lists and Tables, Cross References, Structuring, Top
79 ;; @comment node-name, next, previous, up
80 ;; @chapter Making Lists and Tables
82 ;; or like this (without the `@comment' line):
84 ;; @node Lists and Tables, Cross References, Structuring, Top
85 ;; @chapter Making Lists and Tables
87 ;; If the file has a `top' node, it must be called `top' or `Top' and
88 ;; be the first node in the file.
91 ;;; The update node functions described in detail
93 ;; The `texinfo-update-node' command with no prefix argument inserts
94 ;; the correct next, previous and up pointers for the node in which
95 ;; point is located (i.e., for the node preceding point).
97 ;; With prefix argument, the `texinfo-update-node' function inserts the
98 ;; correct next, previous and up pointers for the nodes inside the
101 ;; It does not matter whether the `@node' line has pre-existing
102 ;; `Next', `Previous', or `Up' pointers in it. They are removed.
104 ;; Warning: Since the pre-existing pointers are replaced with the ones
105 ;; computed by `texinfo-update-node', and since this function has
106 ;; known bugs with the more advanced Texinfo features (see above), it
107 ;; could produce an invalid Texinfo file. You are well advised not to
108 ;; use this function, except if you know what you are doing and
109 ;; exercise extreme caution. Keep in mind that most manuals do not
110 ;; need the `Next', `Previous', and `Up' pointers to be present on the
111 ;; @node lines; makeinfo will automatically generate them when it
112 ;; produces the Info or HTML versions of the manual.
114 ;; The `texinfo-every-node-update' function runs `texinfo-update-node'
115 ;; on the whole buffer.
117 ;; The `texinfo-sequential-node-update' function inserts the
118 ;; immediately following and preceding node into the `Next' or
119 ;; `Previous' pointers regardless of their hierarchical level. This is
120 ;; only useful for certain kinds of text, like a novel, which you go
121 ;; through sequentially.
124 ;;; The menu making functions described in detail
126 ;; The `texinfo-make-menu' function without an argument creates or
127 ;; updates a menu for the section encompassing the node that follows
128 ;; point. With an argument, it makes or updates menus for the nodes
129 ;; within or part of the marked region.
131 ;; Whenever an existing menu is updated, the descriptions from
132 ;; that menu are incorporated into the new menu. This is done by copying
133 ;; descriptions from the existing menu to the entries in the new menu
134 ;; that have the same node names. If the node names are different, the
135 ;; descriptions are not copied to the new menu.
137 ;; Menu entries that refer to other Info files are removed since they
138 ;; are not a node within current buffer. This is a deficiency.
140 ;; The `texinfo-all-menus-update' function runs `texinfo-make-menu'
141 ;; on the whole buffer.
143 ;; The `texinfo-master-menu' function creates an extended menu located
144 ;; after the top node. (The file must have a top node.) This
145 ;; function works only on Texinfo files all of whose menus are
146 ;; present in a single file; use `texinfo-multiple-files-update' for
147 ;; multi-file manuals. The function constructs a master menu that
148 ;; includes every entry from every other menu. Use this command to
149 ;; create or update the @detailmenu menu after you've created or
150 ;; updated all the menus in the file, including the menu in the Top
151 ;; node, using the `texinfo-make-menu' or the `texinfo-all-menus-update'
154 ;; The `texinfo-indent-menu-description' function indents every
155 ;; description in the menu following point, to the specified column.
156 ;; Non-nil argument (prefix, if interactive) means indent every
157 ;; description in every menu in the region. This function does not
158 ;; indent second and subsequent lines of a multi-line description.
160 ;; The `texinfo-insert-node-lines' function inserts `@node' before the
161 ;; `@chapter', `@section', and such like lines of a region in a Texinfo
162 ;; file where the `@node' lines are missing.
164 ;; With a non-nil argument (prefix, if interactive), the function not
165 ;; only inserts `@node' lines but also inserts the chapter or section
166 ;; titles as the names of the corresponding nodes; and inserts titles
167 ;; as node names in pre-existing `@node' lines that lack names.
169 ;; Since node names should be more concise than section or chapter
170 ;; titles, you will usually want to manually edit node names so inserted.

881 This function creates or updates the @detailmenu section of a
882 master menu that follows the Top node. It replaces any existing
883 detailed menu that follows the top node. The detailed menu
884 includes every entry from all the other menus. By default, the
885 existing menus, including the menu in the Top node, are not
886 updated according to the buffer contents, so all the menus should
887 be updated first using `texinfo-make-menu' or
888 `texinfo-all-menus-update', which see. Alternatively, invoke
889 this function with a prefix argument, see below.
891 Non-nil, non-numeric argument (C-u prefix, if interactive) means
892 first update all existing menus in the buffer (incorporating
893 descriptions from pre-existing menus) before it constructs the
894 master menu. If the argument is numeric (e.g., \"C-u 2\"),
895 update all existing nodes as well, by calling
896 `texinfo-update-node' on the entire file. Warning: do NOT
897 invoke with a numeric argument if your Texinfo file uses @node
898 lines without the `Next', `Previous', `Up' pointers, as the
899 result could be an invalid Texinfo file!
901 The function removes and recreates the detailed part of an already
902 existing master menu. This action assumes that the pre-existing
903 master menu uses the standard `texinfo-master-menu-header' for the
906 The master menu has the following format, which is adapted from the
907 recommendation in the Texinfo Manual:
909 * The first part contains the major nodes in the Texinfo file: the
910 nodes for the chapters, chapter-like sections, and the major
911 appendices. This includes the indices, so long as they are in
912 chapter-like sections, such as unnumbered sections.
914 * The second and subsequent parts contain a listing of the other,
915 lower level menus, in order. This way, an inquirer can go
916 directly to a particular node if he or she is searching for
917 specific information.
919 Each of the menus in the detailed node listing is introduced by the
920 title of the section containing the menu.
922 Indents the first line of descriptions, and leaves trailing whitespace
923 in a menu that lacks descriptions, so descriptions will format well.
