882 Documentation in Info is divided into \"nodes\", each of which discusses
883 one topic and contains references to other nodes which discuss related
884 topics. Info has commands to follow the references and show you other nodes.
885
886 \\[Info-help] Invoke the Info tutorial.
887
888 Selecting other nodes:
889 \\[Info-next] Move to the \"next\" node of this node.
890 \\[Info-previous] Move to the \"previous\" node of this node.
891 \\[Info-up] Move \"up\" from this node.
892 \\[Info-menu] Pick menu item specified by name (or abbreviation).
893 Picking a menu item causes another node to be selected.
894 \\[Info-directory] Go to the Info directory node.
895 \\[Info-follow-reference] Follow a cross reference. Reads name of reference.
896 \\[Info-last] Move to the last node you were at.
897
898 Moving within a node:
899 \\[scroll-up] Normally, scroll forward a full screen. If the end of the buffer is
900 already visible, try to go to the next menu entry, or up if there is none.
901 \\[scroll-down] Normally, scroll backward. If the beginning of the buffer is
902 already visible, try to go to the previous menu entry, or up if there is none.
903 \\[beginning-of-buffer] Go to beginning of node.
904
905 Advanced commands:
906 \\[Info-exit] Quit Info: reselect previously selected buffer.
907 \\[Info-edit] Edit contents of selected node.
908 1 Pick first item in node's menu.
909 2, 3, 4, 5 Pick second ... fifth item in node's menu.
910 \\[Info-goto-node] Move to node specified by name.
911 You may include a filename as well, as (FILENAME)NODENAME.
912 \\[Info-search] Search through this Info file for specified regexp,
913 and select the node in which the next occurrence is found.
914 \\[Info-next-preorder] Next-preorder; that is, try to go to the next menu item,
915 and if that fails try to move up, and if that fails, tell user
