NAME

       info - read Info documents

SYNOPSIS

       info [OPTION]... [MENU-ITEM...]

DESCRIPTION

       Read documentation in Info format.

   Frequently-used options:
       -a, --all
              use all matching manuals

       -k, --apropos=STRING
              look up STRING in all indices of all manuals

       -d, --directory=DIR
              add DIR to INFOPATH

       -f, --file=MANUAL
              specify Info manual to visit

       -h, --help
              display this help and exit

       --index-search=STRING
              go to node pointed by index entry STRING

       -n, --node=NODENAME
              specify nodes in first visited Info file

       -o, --output=FILE
              output selected nodes to FILE

       -O, --show-options, --usage
              go to command-line options node

       --subnodes
              recursively output menu items

       -v, --variable VAR=VALUE
              assign VALUE to Info variable VAR

       --version
              display version information and exit

       -w, --where, --location
              print physical location of Info file

       The first non-option argument, if present, is the menu entry to start from; it is searched
       for in all 'dir' files along INFOPATH.  If it is not present, info merges all 'dir'  files
       and  shows  the  result.   Any  remaining arguments are treated as the names of menu items
       relative to the initial node visited.

       For a summary of key bindings, type H within Info.

       info   show top-level dir menu

       info info-stnd

       info emacs
              start at emacs node from top-level dir

       info emacs buffers

       info emacs -n Files

       info '(emacs)Files'

       info --show-options emacs
              start at node with emacs' command line options

       info --subnodes -o out.txt emacs
              dump entire emacs manual to out.txt
