As I recall, there are other info viewers like tkinfo for example. But
really, how hard is the basic info? Enter to go down a topic, u or l
to back, s for search? Seems simple enough for me.

What's really annoying is when the man page for a program finishes
with a boilerplate announcement that the info version of the
documentation is more complete. And yet, all the info version is, is
the same manual page, including the same boilerplate...
