A.5.3 Where key bindings are mapped to the native mode

This node follows the native Texinfo mode summary (see (texinfo)Texinfo Mode Summary) and lists only those commands to which AUCTeX provides a keybinding.

Basically all commands of the native mode related to producing menus and interlinking nodes are mapped to same or similar keys in AUCTeX, while a few insertion commands are mapped to AUCTeX-like keys.

@item insertion​

The binding C-c C-c i for the insertion of @item in the native mode is mapped to M-<RET> or C-c C-j in AUCTeX, similar to other AUCTeX modes.

@end insertion​

The binding C-c C-c e for closing a @foo command by a corresponding @end foo statement in the native mode is mapped to C-c C-] in AUCTeX, similar to other AUCTeX modes.

Move out of balanced braces​

The binding C-} (up-list) is available both in the native mode and in AUCTeX. (This is because the command is not implemented in either mode but a native Emacs command.) However, in AUCTeX, you cannot use C-] for this, as it is used for @end insertion.

Update pointers​

The bindings C-c C-u C-n (texinfo-update-node) and C-c C-u C-e (texinfo-every-node-update) from the native mode are available in AUCTeX as well.

Update menus​

The bindings C-c C-u m (texinfo-master-menu), C-c C-u C-m (texinfo-make-menu), and C-c C-u C-a (texinfo-all-menus-update) from the native mode are available in AUCTeX as well. The command texinfo-start-menu-description, bound to C-c C-c C-d in the native mode, is bound to C-c C-u C-d in AUCTeX instead.
