I have some difficulties to build a text file as clean as a pdf file or html file
(In the pdf-file there is no clickable link in the index) .
I have tried several methods (texi2any (GNU texinfo) 6.7 fedora 34)
:
%.txt: %.tex
makeinfo --no-header -D'TXT 1' --no-split -o$*.txt $<
%.txt2: %.tex
makeinfo -D'TXT 1' --plaintext --no-split -o$*.txt2 $<
I couldn't find a simple and clean way to:
- get the title.
- get the copyright and author.
- suppress a menu entry that shows up in the index.
- get the title : "table of contents" along with the content.
Probably, I will have to extensively use the TXT variable to complete my text file.
the tex source file:
\input texinfo @c -*-texinfo-*-
@set title chess-ec-4.2.2
@set subtitle Manuel d'utilisation 1.0
@set author Marc Dechico
@c %**start of header
@setfilename chess-ec_fr.info
