We can generate a precise TeXinfo markup from Org > files even now using export snippets: @@texinfo:@@ I know that it is possible to convert Org format to Texinfo. I am raising a different issue. I think we are miscommunicating. The question is not whether Org can be translated to Texingo. The question is whether Org format can represent all the distinctions that Texinfo represents. Or, equivalently, is it possible to translate Texinfo text to Org format and then back to Texinfo format without losing any information? Last I looked, that was not possible, because of the issue I explained in my previous message. If things have improved and Org format is now capable of doing this, I will consider that good news. > Another question is that having native Org mode constructs for > manual-specific markup would make things less verbose and ad-hoc. To handle GNU manuals using Org format would not require a feature like that. -- Dr Richard Stallman (https://stallman.org) Chief GNUisance of the GNU Project (https://gnu.org) Founder, Free Software Foundation (https://fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (https://internethalloffame.org)
