    I'm trying to use (tex)info to do some project documentation.  Since we
    expect the document to be quite long, and because it is a multi-person
    project, it is split into separate files. I am having trouble getting
    info to traverse the boundary between files. Here is a short sample
    (/tmp/sample.texinfo):


\input texinfo	@c -*-Texinfo-*-

@setfilename sample.info

@node Top, Other, (DIR), (DIR)

@menu
* Other: (/tmp/other.info).	Some other node
@end menu

@include other.texinfo

@bye


    /tmp/sample.info references /tmp/other.info. /tmp/other.texinfo is:


@c -*-Texinfo-*-

@setfilename other.info

@node Other,, (/tmp/sample.info)Top, (/tmp/sample.info)Top

This node gives you access to Other One and Other Two.

@menu
* Other One::
* Other Two::
@end menu


@node Other One, Other Two, Other Two, Other

This is node Other One.

@node Other Two, Other One, Other One, Other

This is node Other Two.


    The menu entry in my info (dir) file is:


* Sample:	(/tmp/sample.info).		Just a test node.


    I can successfully visit the node called 'sample' using Info-menu, but
    when I try to visit the node called 'other', I get an error 'No such
    node: Top'. If I try to visit 'other' using Info-next, I get 'No such
    node: Other'. Can someone tell what I botched in sample.texinfo or
    other.texinfo?

    Thanks,
