Selecting Xrefs

The following lists the info commands which operate on menu items.

1 (menu-digit)
2 ...9

Within an info window, pressing a single digit, (such as ‘1’), selects that menu item, and places its node in the current window. For convenience, there is one exception; pressing ‘0’ selects the last item in the node’s menu.

0 (last-menu-item)

Select the last item in the current node’s menu.

m (menu-item)

Reads the name of a menu item in the echo area and selects its node. Completion is available while reading the menu label.

M-x find-menu

Moves the cursor to the start of this node’s menu.

The following info commands operate on note cross references.

f (xref-item)
r

Reads the name of a note cross reference in the echo area and selects its node. Completion is available while reading the cross reference label.

Finally, the next few commands operate on both menu or note references.

Tab (move-to-next-xref)

Moves the cursor to the start of the next nearest menu item or note reference in the current node. You can also then use the following command, Return (select-reference- this-line), to select the menu or note reference.

M-Tab (move-to-prev-xref)

Moves the cursor to the start of the nearest previous menu item or note reference in the current node.

Enter / Return (select-reference-this-line)
