Of course, I'd like to clean-up myself the mess I created ;)

this looks nice but would require changing the meaning of the function handle

I think I can achieve the previous behaviour of __makeinfo__ in a one-liner by

text = feval (see_also,  strtrim (strsplit (regexp (prova, '@seealso 
*\{([^}]*)\}', 'tokens', 'once'){:}, ',', true)));

this is nice because it would allow generate_html to work as-is
but is there a simpler way to do the same?
