How do you search subnodes in Pinfo?

1

I installed Zsh`s info manuals.

I run

pinfo zsh

I would like find the manual for typeset.

I type in pinfo

/typeset

It only searches the current screen.

How can you search all other nodes too in Zsh's manuals in Pinfo?

This is specific to pinfo, not zsh. Can somebody retag, please? – Paused until further notice. – 2009-07-16T02:58:51.817

It depends on what various configuration settings are. In my /etc/pinforc there is:

...
KEY_TOTALSEARCH_1='s'
...
KEY_SEARCH_AGAIN_1='f'
...

So pressing 's' lets me enter a search expression, and then pressing 'f' finds the next match within all nodes and so on.

You can set these within your own ~/.pinforc, too.

These keys are defaults for me. And "f" works following a "/". – Paused until further notice. – 2009-07-16T03:00:06.027

I get the following bug after searching with s. When try to move, it puts those codes to my manual directly. Otherwise, the commands seems to work. http://files.getdropbox.com/u/175564/pinfo-bug.png
