Hmm, but doesn't that mean that if the .texi file now contains
foo~bar
then it will come out as
foo~bar
in the dvi file?
It does mean that, and that's the way it's always been, and the way it
should be, ~ being a normal character in Texinfo ... am I missing so

Hmm, but doesn't that mean that if
calling texi2dvi /path/with~tilde/in/the/path.texi breaks
I installed the patch below (modulo documentation, etc.) to support tildes.
There's an undocumented -~ option to avoid all this madness in case it's
totally broken. Hope none of these literal tildes mess anything up.

Yes, I thought about that, too, but it is not really a good idea in
general, because baz.texi might
Can one of you imagine any way to fix that problem?
I can imagine ways, like running tex differently:
tex '\catcode126=12 \input foo~bar/baz.texi'
It will take some time to figure out if it can really work.
Patches welcome.

Hi Karl, hi all,
there is another problem with ~ in file names. It seems that calling
texi2dvi /path/with~tilde/in/the/path.texi
breaks because of \catcode. texi2dvi tells tex to load that file name as
is, which breaks of course due to ~ being active.
Can one of you imagine any way to fix
