| 17 | The info program reads Info documents, usually contained in the
|
|---|
| 18 | /usr/doc/info directory. Info documents are like man(ual) pages, but
|
|---|
| 19 | they tend to be more in depth than just explaining the options to a
|
|---|
| 20 | program.

|

| 28 | The install-info program updates the info entries. When the info
|
|---|
| 29 | program is run a list with available topics (ie: available info documents) will
|
|---|
| 30 | be presented. The install-info program is used to maintain this list of
|
|---|
| 31 | available topics. If info files are removed manually, it is also necessary
|
|---|
| 32 | to delete the topic in the index file as well. This program is used for
|
|---|
| 33 | that. It also works the other way around when info documents are added.
