# cd /usr/share/info # for j in foo.info bar.info etc.info ; do install-info "$j" dir ; done to install foo, bar, etc. Of course, you can just do the lot: # cd /usr/share/info # mv dir dir-backup # for j in * ; do install-info "$j" dir ; done which saves you missing any. If you install lilypond and its documentation under you own home directory, you can also keep it all separate with $ cd .../path-to/share/info $ for j in * ; do install-info "$j" dir ; done and use it with $ info -d .../path-to/share/info install-info makes a great deal of noise on my system, which I just ignored (Debian).
