Info has the `l' command which moves one step back through the history. But there is no symmetric command to move forward... It works like `Forward' button in web browsers. Great! (I was one of those who requested this - thanks.) Five-button mice often have mouse-5 and mouse-4 bound by default to forward and back for Web browsing etc. I'd suggest these bindings in `info' for Emacs too, by default. Currently, I bind mouse-4 to `Info-last' on `Info-mode-map' - it's quite convenient. It would be good to change the name of `Info-last' to `Info-back' (or `Info-history-back'). - Drew
