The problem I have with info is finding content. If the information is in a single document, I can search/browse it easily. Doesn't matter whether the document is a text manpage, or HTML or PDF or whatever. But if it's broken up into lots of little documents then I'm reliant on how the author constructed them. It's much harder to browse.
Is there an application that flattens 'info' into e.g. a single HTML page?
Thanks, Dave
