NAME
       install-info - update info/dir entries

SYNOPSIS
       install-info [OPTION]... [INFO-FILE [DIR-FILE]]

DESCRIPTION
       Install	or  delete  dir	 entries from INFO-FILE in the Info directory
       file DIR-FILE.

OPTIONS
       --delete
	      delete existing entries  for  INFO-FILE  from  DIR-FILE;	don't
	      insert any new entries.

       --dir-file=NAME
	      specify  file  name of Info directory file.  This is equivalent
	      to using the DIR-FILE argument.

       --entry=TEXT
	      insert TEXT as an Info directory entry.  TEXT should  have  the
	      form  of	an  Info menu item line plus zero or more extra lines
	      starting with whitespace.	 If you specify more than one  entry,
	      they are all added.  If you don't specify any entries, they are
	      determined from information in the Info file itself.

       --help display this help and exit.

       --info-file=FILE
	      specify Info file to install in the directory.  This is equiva-
	      lent to using the INFO-FILE argument.

       --info-dir=DIR
	      same as --dir-file=DIR/dir.

       --item=TEXT
	      same  as	--entry	 TEXT.	An Info directory entry is actually a
	      menu item.

       --quiet
	      suppress warnings.

       --remove
	      same as --delete.

       --section=SEC
	      put this file's entries in section SEC of	 the  directory.   If
	      you specify more than one section, all the entries are added in
	      each of the sections.  If you don't specify any sections,	 they
	      are determined from information in the Info file itself.

       --version
	      display version information and exit.
