Is there any plan to add figures and pictures handling to the Info format. A picture is worth pages of text... and I think that the Info format would benefit of such addition. Anyway, I have plan to add such facility to my Xinfo (Motif version) widget, and I would like to know if somebody has done something similar first. The quick way to do it is probably to just call a program such as xv or xloadimage or a PS viewer (or whatever pictures viewer you use) when the user click or select the picture (in Info mode). For the printed document, no problem, there are enough packages around to include PS or whatever format in a TeX/LaTeX document. Any suggestions? -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Francois Felix INGRAND "Read my Lisp...
