In the Emacs community, we have a notation for a pointer to an Info node FOO in the manual BAR that Emacs understands -- you just hit a key, and Emacs lands you there. So if you use the Emacs Info reader, this issue doesn't exist. > I'm also not sure if there's some texinfo URI that could be used to > share documentation pointers. Another Emacs command automatically produces a pointer to the current node in an Info manuals in the above format. So if I want to share a pointer with you, I invoke that command, paste the result into an email message, and you on your end invoke that other command. Problem solved.
