from "info" section:


 Man pages are usually designed to provide reference information, not
tutorials or help on general context. Many more complicated commands
are more fully documented in hyperlinked "info" pages. Info pages
predate the days of web browsers and clickable links. Info pages are
viewed using either the traditional info command, or Red Hat
Enterprise Linux provides a similar command with an easier interface
called pinfo. Info pages are primarily used by software developed by 
the GNU project.

The command pinfo, without arguments, will list a table of contents
for all installed info pages. Basic navigation is similar to the less
pager. Links among the info pages can be traversed using the four
arrow keys, as outlined in the table below.
