INFO(5)                                  File Formats Manual                                 INFO(5)

NAME
       info - readable online documentation

DESCRIPTION
       The  Info  file  format is an easily-parsable representation for online documents.  It can be
       read by emacs(1) and info(1) among other programs.

       Info files are usually created from texinfo(5) sources by makeinfo(1) , but  can  be  created
       from scratch if so desired.

       For  a  full description of the Texinfo language and associated tools, please see the Texinfo
       manual (written in Texinfo itself).  Most likely, running this command from your shell:
       info texinfo
       or this key sequence from inside Emacs:
       M-x info RET m texinfo RET
       will get you there.
