The following table lists the Info commands which operate on menu items.
1 (menu-digit)
2 … 9
M-1, vi-like operation
M-2 … M-9, vi-like operation
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. When ‘--vi-keys’ is in
effect, digits set the numeric argument, so these commands are remapped
to their ‘M-’ varieties. For example, to select the last menu
item, press M-0.
0 (last-menu-item)
M-0, vi-like operation
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. See completion.
M-x find-menu
Move the cursor to the start of this node’s menu.
This table lists the Info commands which operate on 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. See completion.
Finally, the next few commands operate on menu or note references alike:
TAB (move-to-next-xref)
Move the cursor to the start of the next nearest menu item or note
reference in this node. You can then use RET
(select-reference-this-line) to select the menu or note reference.
M-TAB (move-to-prev-xref)
BackTab
Shift-TAB (on DOS/Windows only)
Move the cursor the start of the nearest previous menu item or note
reference in this node.
The BackTab key can be produced on some terminals with
Shift-TAB.
RET (select-reference-this-line)
Select the menu item or note reference appearing on this line.
