Re: Suggestion for another warning

[Karl Berry]

    What I'm suggesting is that makeinfo could warn about the presence of
    a parens in the name being defined.  

I implemented this as follows.  Thanks Akim.

*** defun.c     2000/09/12 18:48:39     1.13
--- defun.c     2000/09/22 18:50:36     1.14

*** 422,427 ****
--- 422,435 ----
        defined_name = tem;
      }
  
+   /* It's easy to write @defun foo(arg1 arg2), but this is misparsed by
+      texinfo.tex.  Warn about it.  */
+   if (*scan_args && **scan_args && !whitespace (**scan_args))
+     {
+       warning ("`%c' follows defined name `%s' instead of whitespace",
+               **scan_args, defined_name);
+     }
+     
    if (!x_p)
      begin_insertion (type);
