!!NAME


info - readable online documentation
!!DESCRIPTION


The Info file format is an easily-parsable representation
for online documents. It can be read by ''emacs(1)'' and
''info(1)'' among other programs.


Info files are usually created from ''texinfo(5)''
sources by ''makeinfo(1)'', but can be created from
scratch if so desired.


For a full description of the Texinfo language and
associated tools, please see the Texinfo manual (written in
Texinfo itself). Most likely, running this command from your
shell:


''info texinfo''


or this key sequence from inside Emacs:


''M-x info RET m texinfo RET''


will get you there.
!!AVAILABILITY


ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/texinfo-
or any GNU mirror site.
!!REPORTING BUGS


Please send bug reports to bug-texinfo@gnu.org, general
questions and discussion to
help-texinfo@gnu.org.
