Hi,

I noticed that the link in the following line in org-guide.org

This document is a much compressed derivative of the
[[info:org][comprehensive Org mode manual]].


gets turned into this in orgguide.texi

@ref{Top,comprehensive Org mode manual,,org,}.


The PDF version of the guide then looks like this:

This document is a much compressed derivative of the org.


So the link description in the PDF version is just "org", the name of the
info node.  I think the link text should be "comprehensive Org mode
manual".  Is anyone familiar enough with the texinfo exporter and texinfo
to fix this?

Thanks

Carsten

Actually, this is not about the Texinfo exporter (ox-texinfo.el), but
the library responsible for handling info links (ol-info.el).

Maybe we should use

    @ref{Top,comprehensive Org mode manual,,org,comprehensive Org mode manual}

instead. But what should we do when a section is specified, e.g.,

    @ref{Section Name, description,,org,}

?

Hi Nicolas,

thank you for that pointer.  I'll see if I can figure out what is going on
and if I can propose a solution.
