| 12 | <para>The info program reads Info documents, usually contained in the
|
|---|
| 13 | /usr/share/info directory. Info documents are like man(ual) pages, but
|
|---|
| 14 | they tend to be more in depth than just explaining the options to a
|
|---|
| 15 | program.</para></sect4>

|
|---|
| 22 | <para>The install-info program updates the info entries. When the info
|
|---|
| 23 | program is run a list with available topics (ie: available info documents) will
|
|---|
| 24 | be presented. The install-info program is used to maintain this list of
|
|---|
| 25 | available topics. If info files are removed manually, it is also necessary
|
|---|
| 26 | to delete the topic in the index file as well. This program is used for
|
|---|
| 27 | that. It also works the other way around when info documents are
|
|---|
| 28 | added.</para></sect4>
