Re: How to read documentation


Thanks for the info about making a .ps file, it worked perfectly!

But I have tried to find the info utility, and I thought this to be a
FSF tool. So I have been in ftp://ftp.gnu.org, but I cannot find it
there. So apparently it is somewhere else.

Do you know where I can find info?

Regards,
  Mats
