SYNOPSIS

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


DESCRIPTION

       Read documentation in Info format.


OPTIONS

       --apropos=SUBJECT
              look up SUBJECT in all indices of all manuals.

       --directory=DIR
              add DIR to INFOPATH.

       --dribble=FILENAME
              remember user keystrokes in FILENAME.

       --file=FILENAME
              specify Info file to visit.

       --help display this help and exit.

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

       --node=NODENAME
              specify nodes in first visited Info file.

       --output=FILENAME
              output selected nodes to FILENAME.

       --restore=FILENAME
              read initial keystrokes from FILENAME.

       --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.

       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.

       info   show top-level dir menu

       info emacs
              start at emacs node from top-level dir

       info emacs buffers
              start at buffers node within emacs manual

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

       info -f ./foo.info
              show file ./foo.info, not searching dir
