Hi There,

Being the ardent vi user that I am I find myself being forced to use the info
command in order to read the gcc documentation.

Does anyone have any bright ideas as to how to convert the *.info files into
regular text so I can read them with vi.

Just a pointer in the right direction would be enough, something like
"user _this_ package".


Thanks
Graham
