I'm running slackware 14.2, the version of the GNU texinfo > shipped within is 6.1. Hello, the content accessed via 'h' (the info.info file) is maintained in Emacs. Maybe one of their developers could change the text? (info)Help-^L You have just learned a considerable number of commands. If you want to use one but have trouble remembering which, you should type '?', which displays a brief list of commands. When you are finished looking at the list, make it go away by typing repeatedly. >> Type a now. Press to see consecutive screenfuls of the list until finished. Then type several times. If you are using Emacs, the help will then go away automatically. If you are using the stand-alone Info reader, type 'x' to return here.
