From 41afff9a417a80c3e54995a704dc3d9890aa7811 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eli Zaretskii Date: Mon, 1 May 2000 08:34:36 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] * annotate.texi: Remove "@syncodeindex fn cp", it causes grief in TeX. * gdb.texinfo: Add "@syncodeindex fn cp". Convert all entries "@kindex f" into "@kindex f (foo)", otherwise we get index entries like `n' and `s' which look weird. Convert some of the @kindex to @vindex, when they refer to variables, not commands. --- gdb/doc/ChangeLog | 10 ++++ gdb/doc/annotate.texi | 2 +- gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo | 111 +++++++++++++++++++++--------------------- 3 files changed, 67 insertions(+), 56 deletions(-) diff --git a/gdb/doc/ChangeLog b/gdb/doc/ChangeLog index b9509fc514..4d55a3f86b 100644 --- a/gdb/doc/ChangeLog +++ b/gdb/doc/ChangeLog @@ -1,3 +1,13 @@ +2000-05-01 Eli Zaretskii + + * annotate.texi: Remove "@syncodeindex fn cp", it causes grief in + TeX. + + * gdb.texinfo: Add "@syncodeindex fn cp".
