| I've forgotten how to open an *.info file directly within emacs info
| reader.   I mean one that is not listed in C-h i. 
| 
| And not getting good start at:
| 
| M-x Info-<SPC> or
| C-h v Info-<spc>

Try: g(filename)nodename

--------------------------------------------------------
g runs the command Info-goto-node
   which is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `info'.
It is bound to g, <menu-bar> <info> <go to node...>.
(Info-goto-node nodename &optional fork)

Go to info node named nodename.  Give just nodename or (FILENAME)nodename.
If nodename is of the form (FILENAME)nodename, the node is in the Info file
FILENAME; otherwise, nodename should be in the current Info file (or one of
its sub-files).
Completion is available, but only for node names in the current Info file.
If fork is non-nil (interactively with a prefix arg), show the node in
a new info buffer.
If fork is a string, it is the name to use for the new buffer.
