+<h3>What is Texinfo?</h3>
+<p>Texinfo is a documentation system that uses one source file to produce
+both on-line information and printed output. So instead of writing
+two different documents, one for the on-line help and the other for a
+typeset manual, you need write only one document source file. When
+the work is revised, you need only revise one document. You can read
+the on-line information, known as an "Info file", with an Info
+documentation-reading program. By convention, Texinfo source file
+names end with a <code>.texi</code> or <code>.texinfo</code> extension. You can write and
+format Texinfo files into Info files within GNU
+<i>emacs</i>, and read them using the <i>emacs</i> Info
+reader. You can also format Texinfo files into Info files using
+<i>makeinfo</i> and read them using <i>info</i>, so you're not
+dependent on <i>emacs</i>. The distribution includes a
+<i>Perl</i> script, <i>texi2html</i>, that will convert
+Texinfo sources into HTML.
