NAME

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

OPTIONS

-k, --apropos=STRING

look up STRING in all indices of all manuals.

-d, --directory=DIR

add DIR to INFOPATH.

--dribble=FILENAME

remember user keystrokes in FILENAME.

-f, --file=FILENAME

specify Info file 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=FILENAME

output selected nodes to FILENAME.

-R, --raw-escapes

output "raw" ANSI escapes (default).

--no-raw-escapes

output escapes as literal text.

--restore=FILENAME

read initial keystrokes from FILENAME.

-O, --show-options, --usage

go to command-line options node.

--subnodes

recursively output menu items.

--vi-keys

use vi-like and less-like key bindings.

--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.
