Re: New @link command for plain links

Hi,

I've found a problem now with the new @link command. It happens when using
constructions like this:

@example
@link{One, One}
Two
@link{One, Three}
@end example

When converting such a texi to pdf, the line "Two", which doesn't have a
link, uses a different  indentation than the lines "One" and "Three", which
do have links. Here's a full test file for you to check:

\input texinfo

@node One
@chapter ONE

tralala

@page

@node Two

@tex
\gdef\linkcolor{0.1 0.5 0.05}
@end tex

A(@link{One, text})B

A(@link{One})B

@xrefautomaticsectiontitle on

A(@link{One})B

A(@link{Introduction,,bash})B

A(@link{Introduction,Bash,bash})B

@example
@link{One, One}
Two
@link{One, Three}
@end example

@bye
