man pp -> info

man pp -> info

Post by prichard devo » Sun, 14 Apr 1991 22:00:30



let me turn around the current thread on info->man by asking,

"Gee, Wally, how do I take some man pages in nroff format and put them
safely into the info reader system??"

considering how nice the info reader is, and the fact that I don't yet have
any backup device (and no system backups), I'd just as soon not do anything
to nuke the system...

TIA

Read my lips, "No New Info!" :-) (or is that, "No GNU Info!") :-)

Seriously, this has been asked and answered many times (and should
definitely be in the FAQ), and the answer is:

        This is not currently available.
