Well, I'd first need to use info to use emacs to use info, |
18 |
you get the point :p |

A manual system should be simple enough that a newbie can |
21 |
start to use it without knowing anything about emacs. Hell, |
22 |
even less is a hard thing to use on man pages for a newcomer, |
23 |
let alone emacs or vi. |

|
25 |
Once you are proficient with emacs, then info vs. man is |
26 |
probably a non-issue for you anyway, so I don't get your |
27 |
point there. |
