Info 2.0 is a complete rewrite of the original standalone Info I wrote in 1987, the first program I wrote for rms. That program was something like my second Unix program ever, and my die-hard machine language coding habits tended to show through. I found the original Info hard to read and maintain, and thus decided to write this one. The rewrite consists of about 12,000 lines of code written in about 12 days. I believe this version of Info to be in much better shape than the original Info. Info 2.0 is substantially different from its original standalone predecessor. It appears almost identical to the GNU Emacs version, but has the advantages of smaller size, ease of portability, and a built in library which can be used in other programs (to get or display documentation from Info files, for example). A full listing of the commands available in Info can be gotten by typing `?' while within an Info window. This produces a node in a window which can be viewed just like any Info node. --Brian Fox <bfox@gnu.org> |
