  Texinfo
       
          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}.
