there are lots of websites that contain HTML-formatted man pages. Are there any sites that have HTML-formatted info pages (preferably all pages for one app on one HTML page :) ?
Yes
It's good to know that it's theoretically possible but it doesn't answer my question. "Are there any sites that have HTML-formatted info pages". Actually I suppose it does answer my question. Could I extend my question slightly and say "and what are the URLs of those sites, please?" :)
I see two reasons for why one would want one bulky page (I'm curious to know if there are other reasons): either because HTML browsers cannot conveniently search at once through a bunch of related pages, or else to print a manual in a single browser print request.
In my case, it's esentially the first reason. It is more convenient to me to have all the information in one place using facilities and key bindings that I am extremely familiar with and which provide external indexing capabilities that I use extensively and continually. I hardly ever use the man command and I never use *info.
