Texinfo is the official documentation format of the GNU project.
|
|
It was invented by Richard Stallman and Bob Chassell many years
|
|
ago, loosely based on Brian Reid's Scribe and other formatting
|
|
languages of the time. It is used by many non-GNU projects as
|
|
well.
|
|
|
|
Texinfo uses a single source file to produce output in a number
|
|
of formats, both online and printed (dvi, html, info, pdf, xml,
|
|
etc.). This means that instead of writing different documents
|
|
for online information and another for a printed manual, you
|
|
need write only one document. And when the work is revised, you
|
|
need revise only that one document. The Texinfo system is
|
|
well-integrated with GNU Emacs.
