The first non-option argument, if present, is the menu entry to start from; it is searched for in all `dir' files along INFOPATH. If it is not present, info merges all `dir' files and shows the result. Any remaining arguments are treated as the names of menu items relative to the initial node visited.
EXAMPLES
- info
- show top-level dir menu
- info emacs
- start at emacs node from top-level dir
- info emacs buffers
- start at buffers node within emacs manual
- info --show-options emacs
- start at node with emacs' command line options
- info -f ./foo.info
- show file ./foo.info, not searching dir
