;;; Commentary:

;;;; Summary

; (Much of the following commentary ought eventually be incorporated
; into the Texinfo Manual.)

; The node and menu updating functions automatically

;   * insert missing `@node' lines,
;   * insert the `Next', `Previous' and `Up' pointers of a node,
;   * insert or update the menu for a section, 
;   * create a master menu for a Texinfo source file.

; Passed an argument, the `texinfo-update-node' and
; `texinfo-make-menu' functions do their jobs in the region.

; These functions replace doing these jobs by hand.
; You may find them helpful.

; In brief, the functions for creating or updating nodes and menus, are:
; 
;     texinfo-update-node (&optional region-p)            
;     texinfo-every-node-update ()                        
;     texinfo-sequential-node-update (&optional region-p)
; 
;     texinfo-make-menu (&optional region-p)              
;     texinfo-all-menus-update ()                         
;     texinfo-master-menu ()
;
;     texinfo-insert-node-lines  (&optional title-p)
; 
;     texinfo-indent-menu-description (column &optional region-p)

; The `texinfo-column-for-description' variable specifies the column to
; which menu descriptions are indented. 

; Texinfo file structure
; ----------------------

; To use the updating commands, you must structure your Texinfo file
; hierarchically.  Each `@node' line, with the exception of the top
; node, must be accompanied by some kind of section line, such as an
; `@chapter' or `@section' line.  Each node-line/section-line
; combination must look like this:

;      @node    Lists and Tables, Cross References, Structuring, Top
;      @comment node-name,        next,             previous,    up
;      @chapter Making Lists and Tables

; or like this (without the `@comment' line):

;      @node    Lists and Tables, Cross References, Structuring, Top
;      @chapter Making Lists and Tables

; If the file has a `top' node, it must be called `top' or `Top' and
; be the first node in the file.


;;;; The updating functions in detail
;    --------------------------------

; The `texinfo-update-node' function without an argument inserts
; the correct next, previous and up pointers for the node in which
; point is located (i.e., for the node preceding point).

; With an argument, the `texinfo-update-node' function inserts the
; correct next, previous and up pointers for the nodes inside the
; region.

; It does not matter whether the  `@node' line has pre-existing
; `Next', `Previous', or `Up' pointers in it.  They are removed.

; The `texinfo-every-node-update' function runs `texinfo-update-node'
; on the whole buffer.

; The `texinfo-update-node' function inserts the immediately following
; and preceding node into the `Next' or `Previous' pointers regardless
; of their hierarchical level.  This is only useful for certain kinds
; of text, like a novel, which you go through sequentially.  

; The `texinfo-make-menu' function without an argument creates or
; updates a menu for the section encompassing the node that follows
; point.  With an argument, it makes or updates menus for the nodes
; within or part of the marked region.

; Whenever an existing menu is updated, the descriptions from
; that menu are incorporated into the new menu.  This is done by copying
; descriptions from the existing menu to the entries in the new menu
; that have the same node names.  If the node names are different, the
; descriptions are not copied to the new menu.

; Menu entries that refer to other Info files are removed since they
; are not a node within current buffer.  This is a deficiency.

; The `texinfo-all-menus-update' function runs `texinfo-make-menu'
; on the whole buffer.

; The `texinfo-master-menu' function creates an extended menu located
; after the top node.  (The file must have a top node.)  The function
; first updates all the regular menus in the buffer (incorporating the
; descriptions from pre-existing menus), and then constructs a master
; menu that includes every entry from every other menu.  (However, the
; function cannot update an already existing master menu; if one
; exists, it must be removed before calling the function.)

; The `texinfo-indent-menu-description' function indents every
; description in the menu following point, to the specified column.
; Non-nil argument (prefix, if interactive) means indent every
; description in every menu in the region.  This function does not
; indent second and subsequent lines of a multi-line description.

; The `texinfo-insert-node-lines' function inserts `@node' before the
; `@chapter', `@section', and such like lines of a region in a Texinfo
; file where the `@node' lines are missing.
; 
; With a non-nil argument (prefix, if interactive), the function not
; only inserts `@node' lines but also inserts the chapter or section
; titles as the names of the corresponding nodes; and inserts titles
; as node names in pre-existing `@node' lines that lack names.
; 
; Since node names should be more concise than section or chapter
; titles, node names so inserted will need to be edited manually.

This function creates a master menu that follows the top node.  The

replaces any existing ordinary menu that follows the top node.

If called with a non-nil argument, this function first updates all the
menus in the buffer (incorporating descriptions from pre-existing

The function removes the detailed part of an already existing master
menu.  This action depends on the pre-exisitng master menu using the
standard `texinfo-master-menu-header'.

The master menu has the following format, which is adapted from the
recommendation in the Texinfo Manual:

   * The first part contains the major nodes in the Texinfo file: the
     nodes for the chapters, chapter-like sections, and the major
     appendices.  This includes the indices, so long as they are in
     chapter-like sections, such as unnumbered sections.

   * The second and subsequent parts contain a listing of the other,
     lower level menus, in order.  This way, an inquirer can go
     directly to a particular node if he or she is searching for
     specific information.

Each of the menus in the detailed node listing is introduced by the
title of the section containing the menu."
