Here we are looking at the top of a typical Info (C-h i) page:

     (make)Top > Functions > Text Functions

     8.2 Functions for String Substitution and Analysis

The problem is there is no way to get our cursor on top of the link
"Functions" in order to click it.

The only way to click it requires a mouse.

That is too bad when using emacs -nw too.

Try it: C-f, C-p just cannot reach it.
