Please reply by mail. I got a number of replies, and thank everyone who took the trouble. Unfortunately I was rather too terse in this message. What I wanted was a program that would do what the emacs Info package does, namely browse texinfo files online, on a dumb terminal. I know about printing documents off with TeX and I have the source for xinfo, but is there a reader for dumb terminals? If not, would there be interest if I were to try to hack xinfo into one? -- Eamonn McManus
