I am resigning myself to the fact that TeXinfo's font handling
system is pretty brain-damaged.
In fact, it is non-trivial to switch fonts in TeXinfo; much
unlike LaTeX's switching system; because of the places where the switch
occurs. So I am proposing the best solution I can think of:
1) I will write a series of header files that can be included in each
GNU Press publication. The standard way to invoke it should be right
after the first line:
\input texinfo
@input pallatino @c This will load pallatino as the default Roman face.
@setfilename ...
@settitle ...
...
@bye
This will actually make it work similar to LaTeX in its
font-handling, must is an inelegant kludge. Most likely, we will want
to incorporate some generic switch mechanism that understands the
concept of Roman, Sans-serif, and Typewritter font faces.
