Re: [help-texinfo] Changing background color of the 'verbatim' environment

[Karl Berry]

    important, doubt is how to make sure that functions in the œôòøcpœôòù index
    (say) are formatted with address@hidden as opposed to address@hidden  

The cp index is formatted with the @r font.  All other predefined
indexes are formatted with the @code font.

    That information doesn't seem to be captured anywhere.

Indexes using @r vs. @tt is part of the definition of Texinfo, just like
anything else, so it's not something that would be part of an
xml-or-whatever file as far as I can see.  In the manual (in case that's
what you meant), it's near the end of the (admittedly too long) node
Indexing Commands.
