NAME

       install-info - update info/dir entries

SYNOPSIS

       install-info [OPTION]... [INFO-FILE [DIR-FILE]]

DESCRIPTION

       Add  or	remove	entries  in  INFO-FILE	from  the  Info directory DIR-FILE.  INFO-FILE and DIR-FILE are required unless the --info-file or
       --dir-file (or --info-dir) options are given, respectively.

OPTIONS

       --add-once
	      add only to first matching section, not all.

       --align=COL
	      start description of new entries at column COL.

       --calign=COL
	      format second and subsequent description lines to start at column COL.

       --debug
	      report what is being done.

       --delete
	      delete existing entries for INFO-FILE from DIR-FILE; don't insert any new entries.

       --description=TEXT
	      the description of the entry is TEXT; used with the --name option to become synonymous with the --entry option.

       --dir-file=NAME
	      specify file name of Info directory file; equivalent to using the DIR-FILE argument.

       --dry-run
	      same as --test.

       --entry=TEXT
	      insert TEXT as an Info directory entry, overriding any corresponding entry from DIR-FILE.  TEXT is written as an Info menu item line
	      followed

	      by zero or more extra lines starting with whitespace.

	      If you specify more than one entry, all are 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-dir=DIR
	      same as --dir-file=DIR/dir.

       --info-file=FILE
	      specify Info file to install in the directory; equivalent to using the INFO-FILE argument.

       --item=TEXT
	      same as --entry=TEXT.

       --keep-old
	      do not replace entries, or remove empty sections.

       --maxwidth, --max-width=COL
	      wrap description at column COL.

       --menuentry=TEXT
	      same as --name=TEXT.

       --name=TEXT
	      the name of the entry is TEXT; used with --description to become synonymous with the --entry option.

       --no-indent
	      do not format new entries in the DIR file.

       --quiet
	      suppress warnings.

       --regex=R
	      put this file's entries in all sections that match the regular expression R (ignoring case).

       --remove
	      same as --delete.

       --remove-exactly
	      only remove if the info file name matches exactly; suffixes such as .info and .gz are not ignored.

       --section=SEC
	      put 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 determined

	      from information in the Info file itself.

       --section R SEC
	      equivalent to --regex=R --section=SEC --add-once.

       --silent
	      suppress warnings.

       --test suppress updating of DIR-FILE.

       --version
	      display version information and exit.
