We're running Gnu Emacs 18.55, and the texinfo libraries thereof. I
am trying to install gawk 2.11 and its info files, and am encountering
the following problem: the texinfo file which comes with the gawk
distribution containes two lines with the function "@syncodeindex",
which texinfo-format-buffer chokes on. It also contains many many
instances of the function "@dots{}" which is also not accepted by
texinfo-format-buffer. SO, my question is, is this a problem of using
the wrong texinfo formatter for this file? If so, what is the right
one? The Makefile in the gawk distribution looks for a program called
"makeinfo" which I cannot find, either in the emacs distribution or on
prep.ai.mit.edu. So, what's a guy to do with this texinfo file?
