E.6 Finding Badly Referenced Nodes
==================================

You can use the 'Info-validate' command to check whether any of the
'Next', 'Previous', 'Up' or other node pointers fail to point to a node.
This command checks that every node pointer points to an existing node.
The 'Info-validate' command works only on Info files, not on Texinfo
files.

  The 'makeinfo' program validates pointers automatically, so you do not
need to use the 'Info-validate' command if you are using 'makeinfo'.
You only may need to use 'Info-validate' if you are unable to run
'makeinfo' and instead must create an Info file using
'texinfo-format-region' or 'texinfo-format-buffer', or if you write an
Info file from scratch.
