That's just a CSS file. It doesn't stop things working and just touching
the file makes that error go away. The real error is "" (after
subracting the timestamp and the referer information. Really helpful!

So at a minimum there's a bug in the info2html perl script's error
handling and most likely either a bug in it's file handling or some
packaging bug that means the config is inconsistent.

If I cared about info, I might investigate :)

Cheers, Dave

  The Info file could not be opened for reading.

Is that a subtle way of telling me I need to install some docs package,
or a bug? Either way, it's an incentive to use an external site:

It's good to know that it's theoretically possible but it doesn't answer
my question. "Are there any sites that have HTML-formatted info pages".

Actually I suppose it does answer my question. Could I extend my
question slightly and say "and what are the URLs of those sites,
please?" :)

In my case, it's esentially the first reason. It is more convenient to
me to have all the information in one place using facilities and key
bindings that I am extremely familiar with and which provide external
indexing capabilities that I use extensively and continually. I hardly
ever use the man command and I never use *info.

Which is why they are mostly not translated, ie, no localization effort. 
Not even "info info" is translated!


At least, some man pages are translated.

If you look under '/usr/share/info' there is only a 'de' directory, and 
the only app translated there is 'gcal'. Only one!


If you instead look under '/usr/share/man' you see 'de,', 'es', 'fr, 'hu',

2007-12-14 Thread François Pinard

[François Pinard]

I see two reasons for why one would want one bulky [HTML] page (I'm 
curious to know if there are other reasons):


Oh, I just thought of a third: because one wants to read all 
documentation by paging through it in the browser, from beginning to 
end, while they would have to click a lot more if one page per node.


This is yet another limitation of Web browsers.  "info" knows how to do 
such paging, through bunches of nodes, quite nicely.

[Dave Howorth]

there are lots of websites that contain HTML-formatted man pages.  Are 
there any sites that have HTML-formatted info pages (preferably all 
pages for one app on one HTML page :) ?


Yes.  Info pages are one by-product of Texinfo format, which also can 
produce laser-printable manuals, and HTML pages.  At the very beginning, 
some people were writing Info pages directly, but it did not last.  The 
proper way is writing Texinfo, and deriving Info out of it.


In the tool generating HTML out of Texinfo, there are options for 
selecting one bulky HTML page, instead of one HTML per node.  I see two 
reasons for why one would want one bulky page (I'm curious to know if 
there are other reasons): either because HTML browsers cannot 
conveniently search at once through a bunch of related pages, or else to 
print a manual in a single browser print request.


I would think the above reasons come with HTML format.  I remember that 
"info" knows to search through all nodes (a bit like Vim knows how to 
search in all its documentation).  For printing a manual, the Texinfo to 
DVI route produces a much nicer manual than the HTML browser route.

I've tried it. Surely better to operate than info, especially it
has vi key bindings for basic operations. But how to search for
keywords within all pages ? E.g. for "precision" in "pinfo bc".
With "/" it seems it searches only in the currently displayed page.


Unfortunately, you are right.

There is an info page for pinfo...

It has a configuration file. Keys are configurable.

Searching for "search" in the index only finds "Node: Environment" ... 
good grief.


In "Node: Keybindings" I see:

KEY_TOTALSEARCH_1
 Key for searching through all nodes of info file.

KEY_TOTALSEARCH_2
 Alternate key for searching through all nodes of info file.


KEY_SEARCH_1
 Key for searching through current node (or manual).

KEY_SEARCH_2
 Alternate key for searching through current node (or manual).



So, we need to know which is the "KEY_TOTALSEARCH_1", but the infopage 
doesn't say.


It has no online help through "?" or "h".


Mmmm... if I type "s" or "S" for search, it does look in the whole file. I 
tried searching for "_pentium4" in "pinfo gcc", and it works. If you use 
"/" for search, then it only searchs the current node.


That's it, then :-)



Ah! There is an "/etc/pinforc" file. Sure enough, it has:

KEY_TOTALSEARCH_1 = 's'
KEY_TOTALSEARCH_2 = 'S'
KEY_SEARCH_1 = '/'
KEY_SEARCH_2 = '.'


But I don't see how to search backwards. Ah, the cursor left key does it, 
goes to the previously found item.


There is time to learn new tricks ;-)

I don't think it is a nightmare, but I do find its keyboard interface 
awkward. I came to expect programs using the cursor to navigate, enter to 
select... etc. Ie, I expect it to behave like "pinfo".


Sometimes info, or rather, pinfo, doesn't select the page I expect, but 
another; and I simply do not know how to tell it to search again. I'm 
trying to remember an example, but can't find it... but there is one that 
when I want, I get instead a "yes no something" page instead.



The simple truth is that Info never succeeded at taking over man pages in 
Linux.  It would have been a good thing: Info is a superior documentation 
format in many ways.  But life is that the amount of existing man pages is 
overwhelming, so all in all, and as sad as it is,

Info is not practical, even if it would have been better.


Sometimes I do not like to browse: I prefer an expanded view with all in a 
single page, to read it from start to end. That is not selectable. Browse 
mode is better when you already know something and want to view a small 
part. But I hate when I have to navigate several subnodes to find the 
exact part I'm looking for, in trial and error browse mode. I then prefer 
the man page, if it exists, because a simple search finds it - if I 
remember an string, of course.


I think that info pages are not bad, it's a good idea, that could benefit 
from a reviewed interface.



And, as a translator, I simply have no idea how to translate info pages. I 
do not have to understand tags and things. I translate text. The fact is 
that not even "info info" is translated! (to Spanish). That is 
significative of the difficulty. There is no GUI program to easily 
edit/translate info pages. Something like LyX, for instance.


For instance, "man man" is translated to Spanish... not that many pages 
are translated, only a few, and many are obsolete. But info pages? I don't 
know of any.


Even man pages are difficult to translate... do you know what I do? I edit 
them directly with mcedit, which has syntax coloring.


Program translation have the gettext utilities, and programs like poedit 
or kbabel to facilitate things. Info? Man? None.



That's a complete failure, IMO.

I'm not fully sure, but I think Info format even predates HTML.
There was influences, and observable similarities for a few tag names.  
Some people, not liking Info, very well accept HTML, even if still not 
man pages.  Yet, most HTML browsers are less capable than an average 
Info reader, when it comes to indices, wide searches, and a few other 
useful things.  And printed Info (more precisely, Texinfo) is of superb 
typographical quality, compared to almost any HTML, which is fairly 
crude by comparison.  On the man pages side, I quite agree that the 
typographical quality is very acceptable, much better than HTML!  :-)
