From: Joseph Oswald <josephoswald <at> gmail.com> To: bug-gnu-emacs <at> gnu.org Subject: 24.2; UTF-8 causes bad reference position under Emacs Info Date: Sun, 13 Jan 2013 18:12:39 -0500
[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Info files with UTF-8 characters cause bad cursor positioning when following references. In the attached utf8-test info file, following the reference "English" positions the point "p" in "speaking", several characters past where the reference is located. utf8-test was generated using makeinfo from texinfo 4.13 I did a bit of investigation: makeinfo apparently generates tag tables using bytes, not characters; it seems Emacs Info is using goto-char without the bytes-to-position conversion. However, when I tried a simple fix, the position was still off-by-one. Standalone info seems to be off-by-one position as well.
