|

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>

21 | <sect4><title>install-info</title>
|
---|
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>
