me a nice plain flat page and let me do the searching myself.
That's what the '/' key is for.
Absolutely. That "info" nonsense is bloody awful!
Seconded (thirded, too ;-)
I've always got along really well with man pages. info just seems very clumsy
in comparison - as though some idiot decided that what people really needed
was a web-a-like interface to the documentation, but then did a really
brain-dead job when it came to actually implementing it.
The worst part is when they intentionally cripple the man page and
force you into the awful info system. Most of the time, I can either
take or leave the GNU/FSF attitude about things, but shoving this info
crap down my throat really makes me want to kick them in the
collective nuts.
