+ How to install Texinfo addin in TeX Live W32
+
+
+In the following, $INSTALLDIR is $SELFAUTOPARENT in the TeX Live,
+that is, the parent directory of "texmf-dist". Actually the
+directory $INSTALLDIR is shown by a command:
+
+ kpsewhich --var-value=SELFAUTOPARENT
+
+
+(1) Expand the file tl-texinfo.zip in $INSTALLDIR.
+ Then you can typeset Texinfo files:
+
+ [A] DVI MODE (dvi --> dvips --> ps2pdf)
+ Used engine is etex.
+ texi2dvi --verbose filename.texi
+
+ [B] PDF MODE (create pdf directly)
+ Used engines are pdftex , xetex, luatex, luahbtex.
+ 1. engin = pdftex
+ texi2pdf --verbose filename.texi
+ 2. engin = xetex
+ set PDFTEX=xetex& texi2pdf --verbose filename.texi
+ 3. engin = luatex
+ set PDFTEX=luatex& texi2pdf --verbose filename.texi
+ 4. engin = luahbtex
+ set PDFTEX=luahbtex& texi2pdf --verbose filename.texi
+
+ Supported encoding is UTF-8 only.
+ makeinfo etc. in the original Texinfo are not supported.
+
+
+(2) If you define an environment variable TEXINPUTS as
+ set TEXINPUTS=$INSTALLDIR/texmf-texinfo/tex/texinfo;
+ Japanese extension by M. Hosoda becomes available:
+ set PDFTEX=xetex& texi2pdf --verbose yatex-lx.texi
+ in cmd.exe command line creates yatex-lx.pdf.
+ An example file yatex-lx.texi is in texmf-texinfo/doc/texinfo.
+ Note that, in defining the environment variable TEXINPUTS,
+ you should input the actual value of $INSTALLDIR, for example,
+ set TEXINPUTS=C:/texlive/2020/texmf-texinfo/tex/texinfo;
+ and the trailing semicolon, ";" is absolutely necessary.
+
+
+(3) How to uninstall Texinfo addin in TeX Live W32.
+ When tl-texinfo.zip is expanded in $INSTALLDIR, a batch file
+ uninstalltexinfo.bat is also created in $INSTALLDIR directory.
+ For safety, examine contents in the file uninstalltexinfo.bat.
+ Go to $INSTALLDIR, and run the batch file uninstalltexinfo.bat.
+ Then the Texinfo addin is removed. For example:
+
+ cd C:\texlive\2020
+ uninstalltexinfo.bat
+
+ uninstalltexinfo.bat finally removes itself. You will see a
+ message:
+ "Batch file is not found"
+ Ignore this message.
