A GNU documentation system that uses a single source file to produce both on-line information and printed output. You can read the on-line information, known as an " Info file", with an Info documentation-reading program. By convention, Texinfo source file names end with a ".texi" or ".texinfo" extension.
You can write and format Texinfo files into Info files within GNU Emacs , and read them using the Emacs Info reader. If you do not have Emacs, you can format Texinfo files into Info files using " makeinfo " and read them using "info". TeX is used to typeset Texinfo files for printing.
Texinfo is available from your nearest GNU archive site .
