Hi, all,
Happy New Year to everybody!!! Best wishes for all your projects and all your areas of life!
--------------------------------------------------------------------
You probably remember me having problems with iso-8859-2 (Latin 2) charset when translating GNU Pascal documentation to Croatian.
If you are doing something similar to some other languages which require 8-bit (above first 127) characters, I've noticed some problems with the way GNU 'info' displays menu items that contain them - GNU 'info' shifts the "hotspots" of every menu item bellow first such character by one line, so you have to select a line bellow an item to select that item.
I'm not to proud with the way I coped with this, since I had to leave those menu items in English, and translate them on the right side in description part (where 8-bit chars are treated correctly).
Any better ideas?
--------------------------------------------------------------------
'makeinfo' inserts spurious line-breaks when 8-bit chars and DOS-style line-breaks are present. After figuring out to erase CTRL-M's from the file, 'makeinfo' output began to look as expected.
The problematic was @table @asis ... @end @table section (others didn't show problems with or without CRTL-Ms ...
I don't know whether GNU 'makeinfo' renders tables correctly under MS DOS enviroment (in this case my solution would break there)?????
Thanks for help in advance?
