cannot process info manpage output in pipe: sends only echo area content

[Dr. Arne Babenhauserheide]

Hi,

While I can process standard info output in a pipe, I cannot do so with
a manpage.

To reproduce:

$ LANG=C info info | head
⇒ first 10 lines of info page

$ LANG=C info man | head
info: No menu item 'man' in node '(dir)Top'

But plain

$ LANG=C info man

shows the manpage for man, with "No menu item 'man' in node '(dir)Top'"
shown in the echo area.

Best wishes,
Arne
