[Pkg-octave-devel] Bug#790626: Argument of \\ has an extra } ??

[Karl Berry]

    > l.56 \initial {\\}

Works for me with current texinfo.tex and the input below (to force
creating the \initial line).  I don't doubt there was a bug in some
version of texinfo.tex in this regard, but I routinely run Texinfo
documents with \indexentries, so I doubt it existed for long.  -k

\input texinfo
@setfilename backindex.info

@cindex \foo

@printindex cp
