Texinfo is not as sexy as HTML
True. Texinfo has to produce HTML to become as sexy as HTML.
Texinfo can produce 10 or 11 output formats and can be produced
from DocBook. One output format is HTML; another is PDF. Yet
another is plain text. Also, there are the two originals:
DVI (DeVice Independent) and Info (plus a bunch more).
The format of Texinfo may be old, but its outputs are as modern as HTML,
DVI, and text.
