 Info: An Introduction
 *********************
 
 The GNU Project distributes most of its on-line manuals in the "Info
 format", which you read using an "Info reader".  You are probably using
 an Info reader to read this now.
 
    There are two primary Info readers: `info', a stand-alone program
 designed just to read Info files, and the `info' package in GNU Emacs,
 a general-purpose editor.  At present, only the Emacs reader supports
 using a mouse.
 
    If you are new to the Info reader and want to learn how to use it,
 type the command `h' now.  It brings you to a programmed instruction
 sequence.
 
    To read about expert-level Info commands, type `n' twice.  This
 brings you to `Info for Experts', skipping over the `Getting Started'
 chapter.
