When creating an Info file, it is easy to forget the name of a node when
you are making a pointer to it from another node. If you put in the
wrong name for a node, this is not detected until someone tries to go
through the pointer using Info. Verification of the Info file is an
automatic process which checks all pointers to nodes and reports any
pointers which are invalid. Every `Next', `Previous', and
`Up' is checked, as is every menu item and every cross reference. In
addition, any `Next' which does not have a `Previous' pointing
back is reported. Only pointers within the file are checked, because
checking pointers to other files would be terribly slow. But those are
usually few.
To check an Info file, do M-x Info-validate while looking at any
node of the file with Emacs Info mode.
