Details:

In the csvread documentation I see

“Any optional arguments are passed directly to dlmread (see dlmread).”

Where the second dlmread is a link 

Typing help csvread, that renders as:

“Any optional arguments are passed directly to ‘dlmread’ (*note dlmread:
XREFdlmread.).”

The code in the docstring is:


Any optional arguments are passed directly to @code{dlmread}
(@pxref{XREFdlmread,,dlmread}).”


My texinfo skills are weak, so I’m not sure what that’s supposed to look
like, and why it parses right for the doc and html but not for the help
display
