+info2man \- generate man pages from info documents
|

+.SH SYNOPSIS

|
||
|
|
+.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
+.B info2man
|
||
|
|
+converts a GNU info file to a man page.
|
||
|
|
+It first generates a POD (Plain Old Documentation) file using
|
||
|
|
+.BR info2pod (1),
|
||
|
|
+then converts this to a man page using
|
||
|
|
+.BR pod2man (1).
|
||
|
|
+.PP
|
||
|
|
+.I info-file
|
||
|
|
+should be the full path to the info file (probably in
|
||
|
|
+.I /usr/share/info
|
||
|
|
+or similar).
|
||
|
|
+.SH OPTIONS
|
||
|
|
+None.
|
||
|
|
+.SH NOTES
|
||
|
|
+The style of info documentation and man pages differs considerably.
|
||
|
|
+Info documentation is generally written as a book, making full use of
|
||
|
|
+chapters, hyperlinks, footnotes, and the like.
|
||
|
|
+By contrast, man pages are often intended as something closer to a
|
||
|
|
+reference card.
|
||
|
|
+.PP
|
||
|
|
+That said, many people prefer the interface used to view man pages (a
|
||
|
|
+normal pager) to the available info browsers.
|
||
|
|
+This program will convert the form, but not the content; don't expect it
|
||
|
|
+to possess the artificial intelligence necessary to turn a lengthy
|
||
|
|
+interconnected info file into a man page that is a model of conciseness!
