## Commit message ##
- docs: Use @pxref instead of @xref inside parenthesis
+ docs: Use @ref instead of @xref
The @xref command is meant to be used at the beginning of a sentence
- because its expansion creates a "See " prefix. The @pxref expands with
- a prefix of "see " and is meant to be used within parenthesis. This
also
- fixes an issue where there was a repeated "see" in the output.
+ because its expansion creates a "See " prefix on all output formats,
and
+ on older makeinfo versions is strict about enforcing a '.' or ',' after
+ the command. The @ref command has no such restriction and is just the
+ link, which allows more control over output. This also fixes an issue
+ where there was a repeated "see" in the output.
