<p>The <em>Info</em> program described here is a stand-alone program, part
of the Texinfo distribution, which is used to view Info files on a
text terminal. <em>Info files</em> are typically the result of
processing Texinfo files with the program <code>makeinfo</code> (also in the
Texinfo distribution).
</p>
<p>Texinfo itself (see <cite><a data-manual="texinfo" href="../texinfo/index.html#Top">Texinfo</a></cite>) is a documentation
system that uses a single source file to produce both on-line
information and printed output. You can typeset and print the files
that you read in Info.

<span id="index-Info-files_002c-reading-in-Emacs"></span>
<p>GNU Emacs also provides an Info reader (just type <kbd>M-x info</kbd> in
Emacs). Emacs Info and stand-alone Info have nearly identical user
interfaces, although customization and other details are different
(this manual explains the stand-alone Info reader). The Emacs Info
reader supports the X Window System and other such bitmapped
interfaces, not just plain ASCII, so if you want a prettier display
for Info files, you should try it. You can use Emacs Info without
using Emacs for anything else. (Type <kbd>C-x C-c</kbd> to exit; this also
works in the stand-alone Info reader.) See <cite><a data-manual="info" href="../info/index.html#Top">Info</a></cite> for a
tutorial and more background information about the Info system, as well
as information about the Info reader that is part of GNU Emacs,

<p>Please report bugs in this stand-alone Info program to
<a href="mailto:bug-texinfo@gnu.org">bug-texinfo@gnu.org</a>. Bugs in the Emacs Info reader should be
sent to <a href="mailto:bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org">bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org</a>.
