When aucTeX is installed the TeXinfo keybind `C-c C-c C-d' used to 
access command texinfo-start-menu-description is no longer available, 
because `C-c C-c' is used by AucTeX to launch external commands.

However it is still practical to access some of the native TeXinfo while 
using AucTeX. I propose to add:

        (define-key map "\C-c\C-u\C-d"   'texinfo-start-menu-description)

   in texinfo.el within (defvar texinfo-mode-map ... ).

BR,
  Vincent.

AUCTeX defines its own Texinfo-mode, with its own keymap. It does not
inherit any keys from the standard texinfo-mode-map. The change you
propose would have no effect.

If you want to add a keybinding, you must either do it in your .emacs,
or ask the AUCTeX people to do it.

Thanks for the reply,

I had the impression that there was some inheritence though, because some part 
of the native Texinfo seems to be replicated (e.g. `texinfo-update-node' on 
C-c C-u C-n).

I will get in touch with AucTeX people, thanks for the information...

   Vincent.
