Well, can you please give me a hint how to use it? I tried to view the generated doc/gnulib.info file like this: $ emacs doc/gnulib.info M-x info but that opens up a different buffer, whereas I wanted to change the gnulib.info buffer from fundamental-mode to info-mode. > Personally, I find using any non-7-bit ASCII character when not > absolutely necessary is simply a pain agent. I've been working on changing that for 12 years. UTF-8 locales are the majority of locales on Linux systems for ca. 7 years now. Here the use of a non-ASCII character (the no-break space) will be a significant benefit for readability of the .texi files and for interoperability with other programs. It's time to use it.
