Hi All, Changing \t to \\t ... results in a doubled-up \\ in pdf output.
I'll see if I can fix that. It is twisty TeX. Trying to use @backslash{}t failed, because there is no @backslash command (should there be?). Conceivably, but it wouldn't really help you now if we added it, since of course current makeinfo wouldn't recognize it. Any other ideas for a workaround that works for both info and pdf? Aside from Ralf's solution of not using macros (sounds good to me :), oddly enough, using yet another macro worked in some simple tests for me (I didn't try your actual manual, though). Like this: @macro mybs \\ @end macro @macro mymac {myarg} \myarg\ @end macro @myma...@mybs{}b} I'm getting a\b (one backslash) in both pdf and info. Sorry, karl P.S. I wish macros did not use \'s. That was a poor design.
