[b822811]11<para>The info program reads Info documents, usually contained in the
[a9c5d39]12/usr/share/info directory. Info documents are like man(ual) pages, but
[6370fa6]13they tend to be more in depth than just explaining the options to a
[bdc08c1]14program.</para></sect4>

[bdc08c1]16<sect4><title>install-info</title>
[b822811]17<para>The install-info program updates the info entries. When the info
[7d90bd3]18program is run a list with available topics (ie: available info documents) will
[6370fa6]19be presented. The install-info program is used to maintain this list of
[7d90bd3]20available topics. If info files are removed manually, it is also necessary
[6370fa6]21to delete the topic in the index file as well. This program is used for
[b822811]22that. It also works the other way around when info documents are
[bdc08c1]23added.</para></sect4>
