pinfo - An alternative info-file viewer
pinfo is an viewer for Info documents, which is based on ncurses. The key-commands are in the style of lynx.
Thomas Q. tells us:
There are a lot of manuals that are more detailed in the so-called info page. But my problem was that I had forgotten the handling of the "info" program every time I wanted to use it. I found a program called "pinfo", which has a prettier output and is very easy to use. It is a console program and ncurses-based.
Very handy indeed! I nearly missed seeing this recommendation. I just used it for digging around the cvs info page.
Thomas always warns us: "
Be careful with water -- it's full of hydrogen and oxygen!" Wise words.
More information on this package can be found on the
Debian web site.
