10<para>The info program reads Info documents, usually contained in the
11/usr/share/info directory. Info documents are like man(ual) pages, but
12they tend to go deeper than just explaining the options to a
13program.</para></sect4>

20<para>The install-info program updates the info entries. When the info
21program is run, a list with available topics (ie: available info documents)
22will be presented. The install-info program is used to maintain this list of
23available topics. If info files are removed manually, you must also delete
24the topic in the index file. This program is used for
25that. It also works the other way around when info documents are
26added.</para></sect4>
