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 equivalent 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  deter-
	      mined from information in the Info file itself.

       --version
	      display version information and exit.
