What I mean is that when a developer has removed or renamed some info nodes in the documentation, previously existing HTML pages no longer exist. Last time this happened, for example, after restructured the regular expressions documentation, I added the following symlinks to compensate for the deleted HTML pages: Whole_002dstring-Operators.html Buffer-Operators.html Regular-expressions.html Emacs-Syntax-Tables.html Regular-expressions.html GNU-Emacs-Operators.html Match_002dbeginning_002dof_002dstring-Operator.html Match_002dbeginning_002dof_002dbuffer-Operator.html Match_002dend_002dof_002dstring-Operator.html Match_002dend_002dof_002dbuffer-Operator.html Regular-expressions.html Match_002dnot_002dsyntactic_002dclass-Operator.html Regular-expressions.html Match_002dsyntactic_002dclass-Operator.html Regular-expressions.html Non_002dEmacs-Syntax-Tables.html Regular-expressions.html Syntactic-Class-Operators.html I don't see how a script can do this automatically.
