The Info command kind of sucks to use though. It's way more complex than you would expect for a manual viewer. The help screen itself is 300 lines long and full of stuff like:
LFD (select-reference-this-line) Select reference or menu item appearing on this line
The help page talks a ton about xrefs and nodes and references and echo areas and tree searches without ever explaining what any of those things are. The h key as always does nothing.
- bombcar 4y agoinfo was emacs trying to be a web-browser and it can go die in a fire. I hated the days of "the man page is blank, see the GNU info documentation" - almost drove me to BSD.
