You need texindex. It's part of the texinfo package (actually, texinfo-2.15.tar.Z). After you compiled and installed it, use it with tex bison.texinfo texindex bison.?? tex bison.texinfo tex bison.texinfo Btw, bison was just updated to 1.19. Perhaps you want to print the current manual ;-) And since you're in Europe, you might want to fetch the stuff from a European GNU mirror.
