What I want to do is to refer an HTML or PDF document from an Info document. So I want the info browser to launch the web browser for it to open a « file: » protocol document.
Here is the Texinfo source which I would like to use: --8<----8<----8<----8<----8<-- begin -->8---->8---->8---->8---->8---- \input texinfo @c -*-texinfo-*- @c %**start of header @setfilename svnbook.info @settitle Manuel Subversion 1.8 @c %**end of header @dircategory Archiving @direntry * SVN book: (svnbook). Gestion de versions avec Subversion @end direntry @node Top @top SVN Book @url{file:///c%3A/Program%20Files/CollabNet/Subversion%20Client/doc/svn-book-html-chunk/index.html,SVN book} @bye @c Lo cal Variables: @c compile-command: "makeinfo svnbook.texi && copy svnbook.info c:\\Nos_Programmes\\MinGW\\msys\\info\\" @c End: --8<----8<----8<----8<----8<-- end -->8---->8---->8---->8---->8---- Vincent.

No, Texinfo cross-references work in any format supported by Texinfo. If your link should only appear in the HTML version, you could use the @ifhtml..@end ifhtml conditional, and similarly with links that should only appear in PDF (i.e. printed version) of the manual. There's also @ifnotinfo etc. So once again I don't think I understand the problem. Could you perhaps elaborate, or show an actual example?
