Subject: Using info in emacs requires traversing history
Date: Thu, 06 Jul 2023 21:39:04 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <xpWFbUtBZW6wyQkHXkcy5Qv464JdoAWS6BVRMVHYM8sH3D2k7QUM6-uYwCJ2-dZNesSPrOvIUYOm7KdPeCneXffL9ZG8-EH2nuFsrANMGuk=@proton.me> (raw)


I am having a problem using the emacs info

I do 

C-h i m awk RET
m options RET

I can use q (or Stop Reading Info Icon) to stop reading
I can do back in history or move to previous or next node.

But I cannot easily go to the Top Info Directory and immediately
read the "Introduction to Emacs Lisp Manual".

I cannot just do 

C-h i m eintr

because I am still in Gawk Node 2.2  Command-Line Options.

How can I get back to The Info Directory (dir) Top without having
to go back through all the history ?
